The story goes that Prime Minister-designate Mustafa Adeeb will be transferred next Monday to the Baabda Palace with two envelopes. In one of them, his government formation, and in the second, his letter of apology. The man adheres to the fifteen-day deadline set by French President Emmanuel Macron for authorship, which began according to Adib’s watch, from the moment he was appointed prime minister and not from the moment he began consultations.
This is what prompted some political forces that keep their lines of communication with Paris “working” to advise directly the designated prime minister, through the French “high commissioner”, former ambassador Emmanuel Bonn, who oversees the authorship process, on the need to turn corners and not divert the first serious test between Adib and the President of the Republic, Michel Aoun, when they meet him bringing his government draft to Saddam, they confront him with an apology. The precision and severity of the scenario deserves some flexibility and give and take before putting points in the lyrics. Items for the current opportunity may no longer be available.
From here reports on the possibility of a meeting between the two men in the next few days to review the quasi perception that the designated prime minister raised before the “big day” set for next Monday, especially since Adeeb has written a semi- Draft your government and can now discuss the political forces at your base to develop a final formula capable of Crossing the baptism of the House of Representatives trust.
Ironically, the prime minister-designate closes the door of his suite at the “Lahoya” hotel. He refuses to consult with any of the political forces. Only Taha Mikati and Emmanuel Boone are co-authors. In fact, an informed parliamentarian even goes so far as to affirm that the composition process takes place in the heart of the French capital, not in the Lebanese one.
Observers reveal the daily contacts the former French ambassador makes with some of the Lebanese forces, and Bonn is also reported to review with those with whom he communicates by phone a package of ministerial nominations, names and projects. But these open lines between Paris and Beirut have not yet moved the backwaters of authorship.
Some believe that Adeeb can put a basket of names for the minister and can discuss it again with the political forces to agree on the final version. This situation may be correct with the Shiite duo, for example, or even with the Sunni partners, specifically former Prime Minister Saad Hariri, but how will the situation be leveled with the Christian partner, specifically the “Free Patriotic Movement” if it is cut off? communication with its president, Gebran Bassil?
In fact, the “Free Patriotic Movement” and its leader have a different history, despite the fact that Adeeb has only met the two Khalileans so far, and distanced himself from direct coordination with Hariri, as he informed the latter of the Shiite duo. , but with different considerations Basil. The “Free Patriotic Movement” has decided its strategy in dealing with this government: providing a “white card” is irreversible. Even if the Aounists are not convinced of the form and composition of the government, they will not allow their accusation of obstruction and the consequences of undermining the French initiative. It is enough for him that the signature, which is still in the hands of the President of the Republic, allows the last attempt, otherwise the parliament will rotate.
A deputy from the “Strong Lebanon Bloc” affirms that Bassil is not involved in any kind of maneuver and is serious about his withdrawal to leave the designated prime minister completely free to do what he wants and how he wants. He says: “The setting is exceptional by all standards, and our steps should be exceptional too.”
Consequently, the obstacles to authorship can be summarized as follows:
Disagreement over the identity of the government. As the president-designate insists that she be one of the specialists, the Shiite duo demands to vaccinate her with some political faces to prevent her from falling into chaos at the first shock, as happened with the Hassan Diab government, whose ministers collapsed in the first shock I laughed. For this reason, there is an insistence on the part of President Nabih Berri and “Hezbollah” in strengthening the “articulations” of the Mustafa Adeeb government in some political aspects without these faces being provocative or unwanted by public opinion.
Disagreement about several of them. It is well known that Adeeb wants him to have a miniature of 14 ministers, while the Shiite duo favors him for Akbar, which means that it must be at least twenty ministers, so that each minister does not have more than one portfolio and fails in both areas. , while the president of the republic tends to have a number of 24 ministers.
Disagreement on the authorship mechanism. The prime minister-designate believes that he can draft his government project only independently of the positions of the political forces, so he drops the names to what he wants from the bags, and that is why he informed the Shiite duo that he is not opposed to carrying out rotation, or in other words, you are not required to save the money bag for the Shiites unless your hands fall on your biography. A Shiite person whose qualifications may match the bag’s requirements. But the response of the President of Parliament was decisive: the fourth signature represented by the Ministry of Finance is an expression of a pactual alliance in the executive branch, and there is no room for it to be abandoned. Adeeb was also asked about the nature of the proposed rotation: Is it limited to sovereign portfolios only? Is it local or is there a serious attempt to break this custom in all subsequent governments? Why not expand to the basic security, judicial and administrative sites if it is a reform proposal? Or what is required is to remove this role from the hand of the Shiite duo, nothing more?
So, in contrast to the trans-Mediterranean movement that Adeeb leads with Ambassador Bonn, the author consultations on the Lebanese dimension are still stuck in place. Any breakthrough that may happen will inevitably bring out the rest of the dominoes. Who will click the first strip?
