Aoun stressed that Al-Manar TV conveys the voice of right and truth and represents a reliable source of information, considering that who blocked the channel’s broadcasting are those who fear freedom and veracity.

Free Patriotic Movement leader Michel Aoun stressed that Al-Manar TV conveys the voice of right and truth and represents a reliable source of information, considering that who blocked the channel's broadcasting are those who fear freedom and veracity.

In a phone call, Aoun told Al-Manar that Arabsat's decision to block Al-Manar broadcasting via its satellites endangers freedoms in Lebanon that has always enjoyed the free media which opposes the censored one in most of the regional countries.

Asserting that they are the courageous who raise the people's morale, Aoun addressed Al-Manar TV staff by noting that Arabsat's decision must promote them to defend their lofty goals, especially that the technological development eliminates the possibility of blocking the broadcasting of any media outlet.
