I have popular support.
In Lebanon, it's never over for anyone. You cannot write off anyone or anything in this country.
There is nothing more precious than our country.
Lebanon first.
If the U.S. decides Jerusalem is the capital of Israel, that does not mean that Jerusalem is the capital of Israel. Because the whole world is saying Jerusalem is not the capital of Israel.
I have a lot of enemies: extremists and the Syrian regime.
I am not against Hezbollah as a political party, but it should not be the cause of the destruction of Lebanon.
Iran must stop meddling in the affairs of Arab countries, and we refuse to be taken by Iran to an axis against Arab countries.
Our problem with Israel is that its leaders always talk about war and security but never about peace.
We believe that the Arab world has been there for centuries, and thousands of years, and it'll keep on continuing being there. All we have to do is work together.
My job and my task as prime minister of Lebanon is to shield Lebanon from any instability like in Syria or Iraq or any other country that surrounds us. My task is to make sure that we have a country that is stable.
We must not pay for the actions of Hezbollah.
The regime of Bashar al-Assad will inevitably go down. And its collapse will be loud not only in Syria but across the Arab world.
We have a diverse population and have to maintain that and keep religion away from politics.
We could do so much if we concentrated on the business community and created jobs. If we make this our focus, a stronger economy and politics will follow.
The Lebanese Diaspora can play a role in helping to build our country's economy.
