When Emmanuel Macron visited Lebanon in early September, the country’s political parties promised to try to form a new government in two weeks to solve the host of problems facing the country. But on Saturday, prime ministerial candidate Mustafa Adib finally had to surrender.
– As attempts to form a government approached the final phase, it became clear that there was no longer consensus, Adib said on Saturday.
This means that Lebanon is back where it started, with great popular dissatisfaction, an economic crisis, enormous destruction since the port explosion in Beirut in August, and now also a further spread of the corona virus.
Now the focus is on French President Emmanuel Macron, who has repeatedly vowed to do whatever he can to help Lebanon, which was a French protectorate during the interwar period.
This week, Macron will visit Lebanon again, but already on Sunday a press conference will be held where the president is expected to present a proposal on how the country can move forward.
