Strong Lebanon Bloc Calls on Hariri to Take Final Decision
The Free Patriotic Movement-led Strong Lebanon parliamentary bloc on Tuesday called on Prime Minister-designate Saad Hariri to take a final decision regarding the formation of the new government.
“The Lebanese are still waiting for positive results from the parliament speaker’s initiative and for the PM-designate’s cooperation with it,” the bloc said in a statement issued after its weekly e-meeting.
The bloc added that on his own, Hariri can also form a government according to the “norms of the constitution and the National Pact” and “on the basis of the French initiative.”
“Seeing as it is impossible to prolong the state of waiting in light of the pressing circumstances, the bloc sees that the PM-designate must take a final decision as to whether or not he wants to form a government,” Strong Lebanon added.
“All the parties concerned must shoulder their responsibilities in terms of highlighting the facts while pushing for formation, because overlooking or distorting them will allow for further waste of precious time,” the bloc went on to say.
