In his response to a question concerning what was left for the legitimacy government in the security and services files, Lamlas said: “southern security systems, and above all the security belt and elites’ forces, are in control and play a major role in keeping security and fighting terrorism”. As for the services, he said: “the government failed in this file although it has all necessary resources”. He added that the council did not force his authority till now although the council is facing massive public pressure to do so because of the poor conditions under which the country is living.

This voice fully agrees on independence, disengagement and restoring his sovereign State”.
