What I'm trying to do is save and rescue the country if I can, and I'm doing my best to do it.

I am not keen just for the position; I'm keen to help and to serve. If I can really avoid any bad things on my country, I will not hesitate one second.

I believe in the stability of my country. I believe in unity.

I am Lebanese, and I know the interests of my country.

The most important, what I believe myself to do, is what is the interest of Lebanon, what is the interest of my country and my nation? And I'm going to do it fully.

What I'm trying to do, and my policy, is to disassociate, to shy away from what's going on in Syria.
