The An-Nahar newspaper wrote:
At the minimum, there is no government before dawn on Wednesday, and at the maximum, the path of government formation may be sliding into an open crisis, and the second possibility may be more likely. This brief summary summarizes the stagnation that occurred three days ago, specifically after the compilation of many sources of information and political parties familiar with the course of the authorship, as described by the coup d’état by the head of the “Free Patriotic Movement”, the parliamentarian Gebran Bassil, in more than 75 percent of the terms of the agreement. That was being completed between Prime Minister-designate Saad Hariri and President of the Republic Michel Aoun.
It seems that Bassil once again succeeded in removing him, once again placing the position of president of the republic in a very critical place and threatening to upset the path of the formation of the expected new government. And if the veil of secrecy that was imposed in the course of the four meetings held by Presidents Aoun and Hariri in the Baabda Palace continues to be the only element that is “entrusted” to them, this does not mean withholding the denunciation of the coup to which it was submitted the president-designate after he abruptly retired from the palace. On most of the points and fundamentals that Hariri presented in succession in the four meetings he held with the President of the Republic, so the meeting with Aoun and Bassil a few days ago constitutes a great setback for which it seemed that there was a pole hidden that pushed the first presidency to avoid the previous consensus and soon the matter was revealed. About some facts. That is because the agreement between Aoun and Hariri on the size of the government of 18 ministers was overthrown and the strike again over a government of 22 or 24 ministers, with which it was publicly translated by the statement of the Free Patriotic Movement last Saturday of its refusal to hand over more than one portfolio to a minister. He then also dropped another basic understanding related to rotation between wallets, with the exception of the money bag which was approved for Shiites with the approval of Aoun and other political parties, but the “coup” revealed that Bassil refused to deliver a rotation that excludes money, otherwise it will not renounce previous portfolios that were in the possession of ministers of the movement. The third main matter, which has been suspended, relates to the energy portfolio, which Hariri’s attempts to reach an understanding with Aoun have not been able to hand over to an independent and specialized minister, which does not count against anyone given the severity of the electrical file in the reform program envisaged by the French initiative. Subjecting the bag to political details and dictates from both the palace and the current, by offering the name of a current counselor in the ministry to receive the bag, who is affiliated with Basil. As for the fourth main issue that was paralyzed by the disturbing blow of the authorship process, it is related to the fatwas that suddenly descended in Hariri regarding the distribution of bags of basic services to other political partners, such as the president of the Progressive Socialist Party Walid Jumblatt and the head of the Marada Movement, Suleiman Franjieh, while a sudden “incubation” took place. When they called him the Druze knot through which I want to share Jumblatt’s two wallets, which should have gone to him, considering that he is the lever of allocation and composition, while MP Talal Arslan refused to allocate Hariri and He boycotted the consultations, so the palace is ready to give him a ministerial portfolio and increase the number of ministers that will allow him to achieve this goal.
And if these are some direct facts that reveal the reasons for interrupting the course of authorship and announcing the birth of the government that was expected today, as the Speaker of Parliament Nabih Berri revealed to Al-Nahar, then there are indications that seem beyond a forced quota battle to make Saad Hariri accept the fall. His completely original project is based on forming a government of independent specialists, and when he raises the white flag to those who demand coup conditions, he will have committed suicide. This dimension was revealed by a prominent political source to “Al-Nahar” and represented in the avalanche of the presidential team and the “Free Patriotic Movement” for monopolizing the three security and judicial portfolios, that is, Interior, Defense and Justice, in the context of the formation of the new government is when it is presented to change the criteria proposed by Prime Minister Hariri. From the point of view of defining your mission in time as six months only as a government of salvation, it can be the government of the rest of the age, that is, two years. This is what the source says, is that the presidential team and its movement are trying to reconcile the three portfolios for them, to begin from now on to seize the basic roles that they provide in the interest of the “movement” of these ministries in preparation for the next elections.
