Sail 19 September 2022

What President Najib Mikati said that upon his return from his foreign tour, he will visit the Republican Palace and will not leave it before the formation of a government, is not a passing talk or to maneuver or to buy time, as a well-informed source confirmed to “Al-Sheraa”.

The talk is serious and real, and it can be built upon in the matter of forming a government, after several data have emerged, according to what the well-informed source says. The most prominent of these facts is the entry of Hezbollah forcefully into the line of breaking the contract that obstructs the floatation of the caretaker government after making some amendments to it. In addition to the pressured French position, the source is also following up on the exit from the tunnel that the country can enter in the event that the proposed government formula is not agreed upon, and the dispute has raged more and more over whether the caretaker government can assume the powers of the President of the Republic in the event that presidential elections cannot be held before the expiry of the term of office President Michel Aoun.

Regardless of what was said and said that President Michel Aoun is about to issue a republican decree announcing the resignation of the current government, unlike what was happening in the past when such a decree was issued only in conjunction with the decree to form the new government to ensure the continuation of the first in the conduct of business, such a step By Aoun, if it happens, the caretaker government will be made according to the opinions of his advisors and his political team, by virtue of the expired ruling in form and substance, whether at the level of conducting business or at the level of assuming the powers of the President of the Republic in the event of his position becoming vacant.

The same source says to those who do not trust that a government can be agreed upon, they should review the words of Hezbollah’s Secretary General, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, who seemed to culminate the communications on the line of forming a government by urging the necessity and importance of forming it for the benefit of the country and people.

He points out that the open line of communications between Hezbollah and Presidents Aoun and Mikati is open around the clock, and initially focused on the need not to go too far in reaching the point of no return in the matter of forming the relationship. The government, especially as it faces a large number of challenges, the most prominent of which is related to the social and economic situation in the country.

The same source points to the importance of the announced meeting held a few days ago between President Najib Mikati and the head of Hezbollah’s parliamentary bloc, MP Muhammad Raad, who had clearly announced more than two weeks ago the call to float the current government. and in TheBack to statemente You can understand a lot of what’s going on right nowً Behind the scenes at the level of the ongoing communications and to ensure that the country does not enter the country in the event that it is not possible to elect a new President of the Republic during the current two-month period, at a stage of new debates and divisions over whether the caretaker government has the rightDo not assume the powers of the President of the Republic.

In information about Al-Shiraa, the government to be announced is almost an exact copy of the current government.

Any government of 24 ministers after the idea of ​​expanding it to include six ministers of state to become of 30 ministers, and the distribution of the four sovereign portfolios i.e. foreign, interior, finance and defense between sects will remain unchanged without any modification. After it was proposed, a Shiite took over the position of the Ministry of Interior in the context of redistributing these portfolios. In summary, the old in this context will remain on its feet, although the issue of changing some ministerial faces is still on the table.

There is a lot of information regarding the proposed amendments, but “Al-Shiraa” is reticent in this regard to mentioning many details that deal with the aforementioned amendments, at least in this period so as not to be a reason or a pretext that can be used in order to disrupt the birth of the government or remove it from the tracks. Seeking to secure a birth for her before the 31st of October – next October. The special and important information referred to is not only related to what was agreed upon on the subject of formation, but also on the issue of the dimensions of a number of names to take over weight portfolios in them.

What can be pointed out in this regard is that the amendments will not be fundamental, and some of them relate to changing the Minister of the Displaced, Issam Sharaf al-Din, and meeting the demand of Mikati that one of Akkar’s Sunni representatives be appointed as ministers.

As for the picture at the level of government birthYeh It will not be clear until after the president-designate or the head of the caretaker government returns from his foreign tour.

For all this, Mikati’s words in this regard, i.e. insisting on forming a government, are serious, serious and realistic. Those who doubted what he said will soon discover that they are wrong and that the government formation vehicle has been put on the tracks, and everyone has nothing but to wait for the prime minister to return from abroad until they are sure that What he said will be achieved after removing much of what was blocking the new government’s birth.

In addition, this new atmosphere regarding the formation of the government is not limited to a specific source, but includes many political, parliamentary, partisan and political circles. Insiders do not rule outIn the aforementioned circles The possibility of the birth of a new government at a specific moment prior to the end of President Michel Aoun’s term on the 31st of October – next October.

AndAccording to these circles, the most dangerous thing is the current situation It is that the country does not fall into the trap of sectarian division that is indispensable in the midst of the difficult and bitter conditions it is experiencing, in light of indications that the prominent Christian parties will not accept that a caretaker government fills the void. presidential. Therefore, making agreed amendments through the understanding of Presidents Aoun andMikati would float the current government, especially since it can gain the confidence of the new parliament before the end of Aoun’s term.

With this, it is possible to bypass the country’s entry into a phase that may be more dangerous and worse than the phase it is currently living in, which has reached the limits of almost complete collapse and the shaking of state institutions and the analysis of vital sectors, and Lebanon issues the list of the poorest and most vulnerable to crises … etc.

Therefore all,

The contacts are continuing and intensively in order to secure the floating of the current government, without affecting the priority of a new election for the republic, which is a matter, although its internal and external conditions are clearly not available so far, but advanced steps can take place in this regard as the time for the end of the mandate approaches Presidential Aoun.

and of course,

The bottom line in this regard is that matters are subject to their conclusions.

However, the qualitative new thing at present is the availability of a will, rather internal and external wills, in order to extricate the government-born child from the womb of maliciousness, attraction and division, which was translated, for example, into an important issue, which is that efforts are focused from now on not falling into traps. Obstacles of the momentThe best prenatal. All of this falls within the context of work to bring Lebanon to less bad conditions and to ensure that it does not go to worse conditions.
