Abu Faour says PSP won't vote for Bassil or Geagea for president
The Progressive Socialist Party will not vote for Free Patriotic Movement chief Jebran Bassil nor for Lebanese Forces chief Samir Geagea in the upcoming presidential elections, MP Wael Abu Faour of the PSP has said.
“Bassil will be the candidate of the March 8 forces for the presidency, not Marada Movement chief Suleiman Franjieh,” Abu Faour told LBCI television.
“Of course we won’t vote for Jebran Bassil for president,” Abu Faour added.
“Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea has not currently nominated himself and we will not vote for him for president. We also did not vote for him in the past when he nominated himself and we believe that the presidency needs a consensus figure,” the lawmaker went on to say.
