“We pledge to make our work up to the great performance of our heroic army…Although it is difficult to reach the stage of that performance, yet we have to get close to it,” Sabbagh said.
He affirmed the common goals between the Government and the People’s Assembly in a way that achieves a strong integration between the legislative and the executive authorities to serve the homeland and the citizens, adding that this integration is necessary for enhancing their performance.
