Christian Lebanese forces leader Samir Geagea says there is no time soon for election

Samir Geagea, leader of the Christian Lebanese Forces, listens during an interview with Reuters at his home in the Christian village of Maarab in the mountains overlooking the seaside town of Jounieh, October 31, 2014. Geagea is a leading candidate for the vacant Lebanese presidency, but won't even hazard a guess when there might be an election to fill the post, such is the political uncertainty overshadowing his divided nation.

Geagea's comments were his first after Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah launched a televised attack on him and his LF party in a scathing verbal address on Monday.

Hezbollah has denied the LF of being responsible for the violence, an accusation that Geagea has accused of.

Nasrallah said Geagea's speech was a poisonous present and full of errors and rumours.
