President Aoun Welcomes MP Hariri, Highlights Imminent Cabinet Formation
President Michel Aoun welcomed Monday at Baabda Palace the former premier MP Saad Hariri upon the latter’s request in the context of a new drive to create a new government.
During the meeting, President Aoun highlighted the importance of creating the new government due to the deteriorating economic situation in Lebanon, reiterating commitment to the French presidency.
In turn, MP Hariri said the French President Emmanuel Macron’s initiative “is the only and last chance to stop the collapse and to reconstruct Beirut.”
“We have no time to waste on political quarrels.”
“I have told the President that I will dispatch a delegation to communicate with all the political blocs to make sure they are committed to the French initiative’s provisions,” Hariri added.
The secretary-general of Lebanon’s resistance movement of Hezbollah says the Israeli regime's "life is reaching its end", stressing that even normalization deals will fail to protect the occupying regime.
Iranian Parliament Speaker’s Special Aide for International Affairs said that the United States, Saudi Arabia and France are pursuing a policy to weaken Resistance in Lebanon.
The secretary-general of Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement has warned against attempts by certain groups to foment a civil war in the cash-strapped country on economic, racial, and religious grounds, emphasizing that the movement will not allow anyone to realize such a fiendish plot.
