Very good … “Alfalfa Ljenblatt!”

A member of the Democratic Encounter, Representative Bilal Abdullah, said in an interview with Al-Anbaa that “the will of civil society regarding the Bisri dam, environmental organizations, municipalities and finally the will of the president of the Progressive Socialist Party , Walid Jumblatt, and the will of the Democratic Encounter and its president, Taymour Jumblatt, are all these factors. Together, she won. “

He added: “But the main merit of civil society and the movement of the municipalities of the region, and the main merit is Walid Jumblatt, who after examining the studies prepared, felt that it was exaggerated, and then it became clear that there were many details that we did not know. Consequently, we formed a crisis cell and continued working for 8 months. So it was clear to us that all the studies that had been developed for the project were absent from the application, causing Jumblatt to refuse to build the dam. “

The Socialist Party deputy affirmed that “the Democratic Meeting Bloc had previously submitted a bill to convert Marj Bisri into a nature reserve.

Abdullah said: “We are the first to draw attention to Beirut, and it is imperative to repair the dilapidated water network. Instead of calling for the polluted and carcinogenic water from Litani to be brought to Beirut, repairing the network is urgently needed.” .

Previously, the World Bank said it canceled the $ 244 million disbursement for the Bisri dam project in Lebanon, effective immediately as a result of not completing the specific tasks required before the start of construction works.

The World Bank said in a statement that it had informed the Lebanese government of its decision on Friday.
