Hizbullah’s Intervention May Resolve Dispute between Miqati and FPM

إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية W460

The current government deadlock is likely to stretch indefinitely given that a mechanism to restore cabinet productivity, as Premier Najib Miqati had demanded, will probably take a while, reported the pan-Arab daily al-Hayat on Sunday.

Ministerial circles noted however that the ongoing tensions between Miqati and the Free Patriotic Movement may be eased through the intervention of the FPM’s ally Hizbullah.

They said that Speaker Nabih Berri may also play a role in this matter, adding that the deadlock will most likely extend until after Miqati returns from his trip to France, which is scheduled for February 10.

A ministerial source stated that the crisis can be resolved through one side presenting concessions to the other.

It added however that the impasse has not thwarted Miqati from continuing government activity and holding talks with FPM officials.

It pointed out that the premier had chaired on Friday a meeting to address the electricity crisis, which was attended by FPM official Energy Minister Jebran Bassil, adding that he later held talks with another FPM official, Telecommunications Minister Nicolas Sehnaoui.

On Wednesday, Miqati suspended a cabinet session at the Baabda Palace over an ongoing dispute over the issue of administrative appointments.

The suspension was prompted when FPM ministers walked out from Wednesday’s session.

“The move is meant to push everyone to act responsibly and use their energy positively, towards the smooth run of state affairs not the opposite,” the prime minister said on his Twitter account on Wednesday.

A dispute between President Michel Suleiman and FPM leader MP Michel Aoun over shares allotted to Christians has prevented consensus over administrative appointments, leaving several high-ranking posts vacant.

I would like you to expand on Harrari's absence from this country and what is the likely outcome of your gamble against Asaad. You might be the hunted pretty soon.

FYI, america and Israel were helping the regime you are betting on , and Dara came back to lebanon with an american aegis ... so if america helped someone, it was you not me ;). Do not worry about me when shit starts to fly i am not in lebanon... but i am most likely worried about you, you are siding with a guy who has been dumped by everyone except russia/china and iran and who knows how much time is left till they dump him to, and it is surely coming seeing how things are going bad for him...As for America they will come to lebanon if things turn bad, you see Lebanon is too small we have borders with Israel, so the losses are minim for them for what you are going to take ...

@cedar, a bit of rephrasing: i agree with you, but those politicians aren't stupid, but the lebanese are!!! they nag and nag, but elect the same ones over and over, because they have interests to do so... Nagging is only a cover ,but actually most of lebanese are happy with the way lebanon is ,No laws, people make Good money(illegaly), no taxes, and no worries about paying bills either... where do you see other than in Lebanon, people going out everyday after work to arguile, it's not a way of living but it means that they have nothing to worry about, everywhere else people run like robots to survive, but in Lebanon because of the political structure and chaos, they make a lot of money and spend a lot(nothing to worry about).
So Cedar the answer is: No one is stupid, only the poor ones, that they aren't getting anything, even these ones they get like few $$ before the elections, and forget that 4 years of hell will follow..

the filthy zionist information war department is placing huge hope in a minor political deadlock that is so common that normal lebanese don't care anymore.
