Berri: Proportionality forms essential move to modern state

House Speaker, Nabih Berri, voiced support to the electoral law based on proportionality, saying, "It's the essential and most appropriate system prone to shift Lebanon into the stage of building a modern state." 

Speaker Berri's stance came in the context of Wednesday's parliamentary gathering. 

Berri warned of any delay in accomplishing the parliamentary election law, reminding that the proportional one will be the most suitable to ensure a fair popular representation. 

On a different note, he hailed the efforts of the Lebanese Army and other security forces in anchoring security and stability, considering the empowerment of local security as "the most important national investment."
