Jumblat Says No Need for 'Unconstitutional' Baabda Meeting
Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat on Sunday poured cold water on suggestions that a five-party meeting be held in Baabda to resolve the curreny political crisis.
"It seems that the current political tensions are not limited to (the deadly incidents in) al-Basatin or Choueifat, as a domestic-regional political party has hinted," Jumblat tweeted.
"That's why the Baabda meeting would be of no use if those who are directly involved do not clarify to us the reason behind this new animosity, " Jumblat added, referring to Hizbullah.
"Whatever happened to the Taef Accord?" he asked.
Noting that the crisis is no longer "domestic," Jumblat also criticized the Free Patriotic Movement's "reluctance to accept the state budget for reasons that contradict with the Taef Accord."
He finally concluded that the proposed meeting in Baabda would be "unconstitutional."
According to ministerial sources, the proposal calls for a meeting at the Baabda Palace between President Michel Aoun, Speaker Nabih Berri, Prime Minister Saad Hariri, Lebanese Democratic Party chief Talal Arslan and Jumblat with the aim of separating between the standoff over the al-Basatin incident and the resumption of cabinet sessions.
So, one thug/MP is holding the whole country hostage and preventing the government from convening. And Nassrallah says Arslan is not a tool.... lool.
Totally disagree ... The stool is a very good thing as it is very useful - unlike most of our politicians
These so-called "politicians" are one day going to bring about the break-down of the Republic of Lebanon due to their refusals to sit down and talk to each other in Parliament like human beings.
'Unconstitutional' are each and every key politician on this f...ing Game of Thrones du Liban...
All thugs and warlords starting by the Speaker of the house, the president of the republic, the PM and all the other Lebanese parties leaders!
