Abdel Samad Stresses Bisri Statement Taken Out Of Context

Minister of Information Manal Abdel Samad tweeted this Wednesday: “When I visited Marj Bisri, listened to the locals’ concerns, and discussed what could be done, including the halting of the project or its completion, one of the attendees cut out part of my statement to cause confusion and sedition, and this is shameful.”

“(…) Every time a rumor spreads, be sure that those spreading it have no concern over the country’s best interest, but rather seek to stir strife and waste time instead of searching for the truth,” she added.
