Jumblatt said in a press release: “Hariri has appointed himself to head the government and there is no need for us to go to Baabda (referring to binding parliamentary consultations), revealing that he refused to receive the Future Bloc delegation sent by Hariri to discuss government developments, saying: “This is not about this. Walid Jumblatt “.
Jumblatt asked: Why do you want to cancel me? He said: “Hariri handed over the Lebanese state in the last three years to the Shiite duo (Hezbollah Movement and Amal) and the Free Patriotic Movement represented by Gebran Bassil, who participates in the government, as well as Samir Geagea, head of the Forces Party. “.
Jumblatt stressed that he will not leave Hariri, but “speaks of the bitterness of his performance.”
Hariri confirmed that the French initiative is the last chance Lebanon has left, stating that it assigned a delegation to communicate with all political blocs to move forward with this initiative.
Hariri’s statements came after his visit to the President of the Republic and the President of Parliament today, before the binding parliamentary consultations on the 15th of this month to appoint a new president to form a government.
