Speaker Berry on the victory of the lawyer Wissam Eid:
• Congratulations... But from now on you have to be for everyone and not for one category of lawyers. He added: Be moderate, because moderation is a pillar of Lebanon.
• The victory achieved in the Bar Association takes on great importance and symbolism because this is the first time that a Shia lawyer has been awarded membership in the Bar Council in many years, but from the moment of his election his identity became national and crossed sectarian and political affiliations.
• Although I appreciate the sentiments of the supporters and fans who chanted my name after the win, I would prefer not to shout that chant to avoid provoking anyone.
