An international desire to form a government urgently in Lebanon

According to what the “Republic” has gathered from the interested parties in the government formation file, it is expected that next week will be a week to intensify political consultations to agree on the personality of the designated president and thus build the new government in shape. consensual. This is because the international climate, with the announcement of the framework negotiation agreement, became more impulsive in this direction, which was confirmed by the international advice received by Lebanese officials in the last hours, who considered that it would be better for him. Lebanon will initiate demarcation negotiations in light of a calm and stable political and governmental situation. As it is now in a state of instability.

In this context, a senior official revealed that an international figure had transmitted to him evidence of the US desire to urgently form a government in Lebanon, committed to the implementation of the reforms advocated by the Lebanese people.

This comes in conjunction with what diplomatic sources reported from the French capital, about the French monitoring of what is happening inside Lebanon.

These sources noted that “ communication between Paris and Beirut has not been interrupted since the fierce press conference of French President Emmanuel Macron, ” which was confirmed by well-informed political sources who spoke of French contact with Hezbollah after the speech of the French president. Without these sources clarifying what happened between the two sides.

Diplomatic sources in Paris revealed that “he has serious data indicating that President Macron has a serious tendency to activate his initiative in the near future”, but without clarifying the nature of this activation.

According to data from the same sources, the six-week deadline set by President Macron to form a government in Lebanon, of which a week has elapsed so far, does not mean that this formation occurs in the fifth or sixth week. Rather, Paris wants the government to be formed sooner. It will move in this direction, but that certainly depends on the response of the parties in Lebanon, who are supposed to have benefited from the previous experience that ended with President-designate Mustafa Adeeb to apologize.

In response to a question about the validity of what was reported that President Macron will send an envoy to Lebanon to accompany the formation of the government, the sources said: “Lebanon is a key issue on the Elysee’s agenda, and the president Macron will not abandon his initiative, and this is a constant matter for him, and he will definitely be present in Lebanon for it to be successful, be it through personal or diplomatic Delegates. As for the calendar, it is definitely subject to the French president’s calendar.
