The negotiations to form the government returned to the starting point, but in a positive sense this time, according to a form that ensures the reordering of government consultations in preparation for the creation of a formation within a new term, with local production and French support, your time limit next week.
President-designate Mustafa Adeeb adjusted his veil and began the return journey composing. The head of the Future block, Saad Hariri, is standing behind him. The Shiite duo re-tamed their positions before a concession that met the “Hariri positivity” … However, the clouds are still cloudy. Building on the complications of the “Hariri initiative” and wresting it from the Shiite duo should not be taken as a compass in determining the fate of the composition in light of the possibility of additional contracts arising … so things remain at their last. moment.
President Adeeb unleashed an inhibition from consulting anyone. It’s a first step as a prelude to greater openness that is expected to affect those who care about Christian portfolios and Druze representation. Yesterday, “Khalilin” was confined for about 30 minutes, which was an attempt by both parties to break the ice that had accumulated in the bank of authorship. It’s a first stage, before the two sides start breaking into the mainstream.
According to the first indications, the meeting was positive. The two sides exchanged expressions of respect and cooperation. Adeeb seemed more like an audience than a spokesperson. Al-Khalilan made him understand that the issue is no longer a question of a bag with a minus or a bag with a plus, but a search for a connection with the reality of my letter – representative in the country and there are those who want to steal it. In front of him, they emphasized their right to appoint the Shiite ministers, and the two sides treated the Hariri initiative flexibly and positively “despite many reservations about it.” They told him they were about to make a concession to “facilitate their mission.” The basis of this concession was to return to the old proposal, building a list of 5 to 7 names that includes qualified personalities to take over the “Open Sesame” portfolio, and the president-designate has the full right to choose between them.
The other concession is that the duo informed the taxpayer that they were fully prepared to put up more than one list when necessary. This solution applies to the remaining two bags if the Shiite participation is 3. It is striking that the representatives of the two did not discuss Adeeb with its quality. In this sense, the two give the right to elect President Adeeb, and the latter the full freedom to involve Prime Minister Hariri or not, and in this fulfillment of what Hariri affirmed in the initiative statement.
At yesterday’s meeting, President Adib started the duo to present any list “under the pretext of consultation.” Al-Khalilan understood that Adeeb initially wanted to cover himself from his point of reference, which is within the meeting of the “Sunni Quartet”. Adib knows that the “quartet” is not together and does not take the place of a single man. President Tammam Salam does not elaborate. President Fouad Siniora is busy with his sister’s condolences. Presidents Najib Mikati and Saad Hariri remained in the square. First, he had informed Adib that he fully supported him in a contact that took place between them the day before. Mikati is rumored to have contacted the Shiite duo a few days before contacting Adeeb, and the contact was positive. This requires being reflected in the writer. Prime Minister Hariri had originally laid out his initiative, thus opening the way for Adeeb to produce a solution with the Shiite duo. In this sense, the financial node is heading towards the solution.
What continues to preoccupy the Shiite duo now is the question of “political balance in government.” This issue is related to the end of the training work provided by the third guarantor that has passed to the two parties and their allies as a result of the same agreement. In light of the completion of the authoring workshop, the accuracy of this balance can be measured.
All of these positives cannot eliminate the negatives placed on the Sunni side of the road. The general Sunni mood is not leaning towards Prime Minister Hariri’s initiative. Part of the sources for creating this mood is due to the credit of the other three Sunni presidents who set a sectarian trap for Saad Hariri to the point of delegitimizing his initiative. There is no doubt that the Sunni street is boiling over. There is a misunderstanding of this silky transition from militancy to inaction. There is astonishment among the Sunni intelligentsia at the “political bragging” that confused Hariri, and there are those who are difficult to translate what happened. Then there are political levels that say that the “Hariri initiative” shocked most of the Arab ambassadors accredited to Lebanon, who were otherwise. Exactly when Hariri wrote it in his statement that night.
This heat was trapped by the “soft branch” of the Shiite duo who sent their delegate to Dar al-Fatwa to meet with the Mufti of the Republic. It is true that the appointment of the former minister, Ali Hassan Khalil, had been requested some time ago, but his determination in this precise circumstance is timely. The Shiite duo want to vent the sectarian tension that occurred in the immediate vicinity of the standoff over the financial portfolio within Islamic ranks and dispel any Sunni-Shiite undertones that formed as a result, so they turned to home as their main concern. Furthermore, the duo are keen to inform Dar Al Fatwa about what the Finance Ministry intends to do behind his request, so that he is not suspicious.
