Early on, Prime Minister-designate Najib Mikati arrived at Baabda Palace with a government formation or rather a government reshuffle to deposit a copy with President Aoun. After discussing the ideas that were presented during non-binding parliamentary consultations, Prime Minister Mikati spoke regarding the lack of options and time.
Will the government be born soon? The sources indicated that it is difficult for the President of the Republic to accept the formation as it is, and that some parliamentary blocs reject it, foremost among which is the Free Patriotic Movement, which, according to sources, prefers to expand the government to thirty ministers, an option that the sources ruled out that Prime Minister Mikati would agree to. And if the sources talked regarding the fact that the presented line-up is nothing but a first rehearsal, Hezbollah stressed the speedy formation of the government, and that it is working hard in this context, urging those concerned to take practical measures the country desperately needs.
The head of Hezbollah’s Executive Council, Hashem Safi al-Din, called for not waiting for Hochstein and Washington’s alms, which are preoccupied with how to secure oil and gas for Europe. The sources feared the Israeli intransigence in rejecting this paper, and the deliberate waste of time. In order to invest time in this sensitive stage in which the region is going through, and to discuss the challenges and prospects for the near future for Palestine, His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, Secretary General of Hezbollah, met with two delegations from the Popular Front – General Command and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, at a time when the resistance was in Gaza and through a film Qasir provokes the wrath of the Zionist political and security authorities. Al-Qassam Brigades succeeded in achieving its goal of publishing footage of the captured Zionist soldier, and the news interacted on a wide level in the occupation entity, which put the matter in the context of harsh psychological warfare, and an attempt to influence Israeli public opinion.
