The Al-Gomhoria newspaper reported that while there was unanimity at yesterday’s cabinet meeting to support measures taken to combat the Corona epidemic and take more of them, there was a ministerial clash between the ministers of the “Free Patriotic Movement” , on the one hand, and the rest of the ministers, on the other, on the subject of introducing products into the establishment plan. The power generation plants, along with Zahrani and Deir Ammar, ended with a different vote for the interests of the current ministers.

The newspaper learned that, after Energy Minister Raymond Ghajar presented the electricity plan and the memorandum of understanding that the Council of Ministers delegated in its last session to prepare, he suggested that the three laboratories be placed within the memorandum of understanding, namely: Al-Zahrani, Salata and Deir Ammar, and the Minister of Agriculture Abbas Mortada objected that the properties of the goods cost up to 500 million dollars, emphasizing that “the state cannot pay for these properties while there is existing stations. ” He noted that Cedar’s loan for the rehabilitation of electricity could not finance more than two stations, and this is what the Lebanese state reported to those involved in a conference. Cedar “which means add any station Ih station will fly again so Zahrani or Deir Ammar can fly if Salaata is added”.

The newspaper added that, while supporting Hezbollah ministers, “Murtada on this matter, the Roma said:” The companies expressed their willingness to start from Zalata and the establishment of the factory as something easier. “Here, the ministerial sources they found the words of the Roma to be humiliating because it seemed in them to intend to include goods in the electricity plan like a Basic station, and try to “shape the needle with bread” with this display.

A large number of ministers have faced this issue, including “Al-Marada” and “Al-Tashnaq” ministers and Prime Minister-affiliated ministers, and agreed that “there are stations ready and the state should not incur millions dollars in assets, we are indispensable in these circumstances. ” They suggested that the work start from Zahrani and be completed later at other stations. But Rome insisted on mentioning Silata in the decision, and the ministers of the “Free Patriotic Movement” supported him. Economy Minister Raoul Naama insisted that Silataat be mentioned, but when most ministers rejected this proposal, Naama also asked to vote on it. Minister Ghada Shreim did so and asked: Why do you want to eliminate Silata and we insist that he be in this decision? “

Here, according to what the newspaper pointed out, there was confusion in the session, especially among the “main” ministers, at which point the prime minister intervened and said: “Let’s put the matter to a vote.” The ministers of “Hezbollah”, the “Amal” movement, the “Marada”, the Tashnagh, Manal Abdel Samad and Muhammad Fahmy raised their hands to vote against mentioning Silata in the decision and the start of the station phase Al-Zahrani, while Raoul Neama, Raymond Ghajar, Ghada Shreim, Zaina Akkar even voted in favor of Naskar.

Here, Prime Minister Aker addressed her and said, “Oh Zina, you already told me that the solution is to start from Zahrani.” Aker was confused and took her hand, and 4 ministers remained against the decision. It was noted that all the ministers of the movement were angry and seemed to be in tension, so the Minister of the Economy stood up and addressed the Prime Minister: “How did this happen?” Diab said to him, concluding the discussion: “The issue is over, we have voted, the issue is over and the line is on the line.”

The decision of the Council of Ministers was as follows: the Council of Ministers approved the request of the Ministry of Energy and Water to negotiate agreements with interested companies on the basis of the Memorandum of Understanding prepared by the Ministry after introducing some amendments, and presenting a report the result to the Cabinet so that it can be applied to the plan starting with Zahrani. And to complete as needed, the word “need” was replaced by the word plan.
