Until now, there has been no final arrangement of the composition mechanism, nor the basic principles of this composition. The rotation of the two sides at the stalemate has not yet answered the question that is in the path of composition from the first day of Adeeb’s assignment: Who will appoint the ministers? Is it the president-designate or the political forces that will appoint their ministers? Will the ministers be appointed by consensus? Or an obligation of the president-designate? Nor did it answer a question no less important than the first: What is the size of the government? Have you actually drawn up the ministerial map and what powers will it include? Are they the ones who appointed Adeeb in consulting? Or will it outperform most of them? How will the bags be distributed in it? What criteria will be adopted in this distribution?

Two things are related If the fifth consultative meeting between the President of the Republic, General Michel Aoun, and the president in charge of forming the new government, Mustafa Adeeb, ended yesterday with the continuation of deliberation and rotation in the cycle of impasse of authorship, although With the additional promise of a sixth meeting before noon today, then the title of the crisis must be read both from inside the Republican Palace and from outside. Where the allies of the pact lined up behind the “Shiite duo” that became a locomotive to disrupt the formation of the government in an unacceptable way and began taking staggered steps in succession in the face of all attempts to break the crisis. In fact, the media uproar over the circumstance that the president-designate first brought to Baabda was thought by everyone. He brought his government formation with him, quickly frustrating bettors to break the wall of crisis, after the Presidency of the Republic itself quickly denied that the meeting had witnessed the presentation of a government formation or that a writer led a group. Furthermore, the confirmed information available to Al-Nahar about the black envelope Adeeb was carrying confirms that it included the letter of apology from the president appointed to form the government. But the development that preceded this decision made by Adib and the advance of the domestic scene in the last hours was not in the fifth consultative meeting in Baabda, but in the sudden and wide awakening of the forces on March 8, which more closely resembled to a long dormant alliance and the role of the Shiite duo completely surpassed all developments related to the crisis. The formation of the government, but it is the duo who played the spearhead role in transforming this right into a crisis. It appears that the duo, who embarrassed him for being individually responsible for the extremely dangerous consequences of aborting the last bailout chance to form a government, set out to mobilize their allies to bring the March 8 alliance stage back to the stage, and the signs of escalation began. It is condensed successively after the failed meeting held on Thursday night between the designated president and the two Khalilean representatives of the Shiite duo. This practically emerged in the staff positions on March 8, beginning with the head of the Marada Movement, Suleiman Franjieh, who supported the position of the Shiite duo by obtaining the money portfolio and appointing the Shiite ministers as he asked to be named. himself the minister de la Marada..

Then followed the deputy Talal Arslan, who announced that more than one problem would face the government and its boss if the parliamentary blocs with the required specifications were not respected. After that, Tashnag circles proceeded to stipulate that Armenian ministers be elected along with the hint in Covenant circles that the President of the Republic will not accept the appointment of Christian ministers who would not be behind their appointment..

In light of this coordinated political attack by the March 8 Alliance, and after it was found that the Shiite duo were not in the process of agreeing to appoint the writer Shiite ministers, the delay of the meeting that was scheduled between Aoun and Adib from yesterday noon to 5 in the afternoon is a decisive signal, since the designated president seemed to be heading to resolve his position. Apologizing for forming the government, he preferred to extend the final decision for a few hours, to allow last minute consultations before the apology. Adeeb arrived at the Baabda Palace at five in the afternoon pregnant for the first time with a black envelope, which gave the impression that she had transferred the formation of her government. The meeting lasted forty minutes, after which the designated president announced in a very brief statement that he had agreed with President Aoun to hold another meeting at eleven o’clock this afternoon and indicated that he had placed the President of the Republic in the environment of his consultations . While the meeting sparked broad conflict in the data, information and media environment that followed, especially regarding speculation about whether Adeeb had transferred his draft training or sectarian distribution list to ministers without their names, the presidency of the republic emerged through his Twitter account to reveal that in the meeting held between presidents Aoun and Adeeb. The results of the ongoing contacts were evaluated and that the appointed President did not present to President Aoun any government formula that she proposes, nor did she present any vision for its composition..

Apologies
Later, Al-Nahar learned that the president-designate, President Aoun, deposited a letter of apology, noting that concerned circles spoke about his making biographies of experts and specialists who would be candidates to take over the ministries and foresaw the distribution of the 22 portfolios to 14 ministers. However, the President of the Republic urged Adib to postpone his move to another meeting before noon today, due to the need to return to the French and make additional contacts and consultations, so that they reach a last minute agreement. The information indicates that the hours that followed the Baabda meeting were indeed characterized by exceptional intensity internally, as well as on the Paris-Beirut line, in a final attempt to catch Adeeb’s announcement of his final Baabda apology today.
Also, President Najib Mikati revealed in a televised interview that there were discussions that took place in the evening about the formation of the government and that President-designate Mustafa Adeeb says that he does not want to face any party, and if positive results are not achieved in terms to the government formation today, Adeeb may apologize.
Again with the Khalilin
Later in the evening, another meeting was held between the President-designate Mustafa Adeeb, the Political Assistant to the Speaker of Parliament Nabih Berri, Representative Ali Hassan Khalil and the Political Assistant to the Secretary General of “Hezbollah” Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah Hussein al- Khalil. And it was clear that this meeting was the last chance to reach a conclusion. A solution for appointing the finance minister and the Shiite ministers after Al-Khalilan informed Adeeb the day before yesterday that they adhered to his nomination. It was reported that yesterday’s meeting discussed a proposal to merge Adeeb’s formation with the list of names proposed by the Shiite duo and the selection of ministers among them, while other sources confirmed that another proposal was discussed..
It emerged overnight that the atmosphere of the promised solution dissipated with the likelihood of a writer apologizing after the end of the waiting period he had taken for himself and in light of the increasing obstacles he faced in appointing ministers and the demand of the Christian blocs to appoint their ministers along the lines of the Shiite duo..
