Aoun: Suleiman stole my rights, has no right to ministries

Share:

Change and Reform bloc leader MP Michel Aoun said Tuesday that President Michel Suleiman has no right to shares in the cabinet Prime Minister-designate Najib Mikati is currently working to form.

“Our [cabinet representation] rights were stolen in 2008 and 2009. [Suleiman] took four key portfolios [in previous cabinets]. This will not happen from now on,” Aoun also said.

Suleiman has “turned out not to be a consensus president” and is “aiming to have a political role,” Aoun said, adding that if the president wants to get involved in politics, he ought to form his own political party.

“There is no statement [in the constitution] granting him the right to ministries,” Aoun told the press following his bloc meeting in Rabieh.

“[Suleiman] is not allowed to use his powers when he is ruling. He cannot use his powers and [still] say that he is a consensus [president].”

The assignment of specific ministries should be discussed after parliamentary blocs have been granted numbers of cabinet seats in proportion to their size, he stated, adding that he still trusts Mikati.

“If I have the right to the [Interior] Ministry, I will take it.”

Mikati was appointed to the premiership on January 25 with the Hezbollah-led March 8 coalition’s backing and has called on all parties to join his cabinet.

Talks on cabinet formation are reportedly being obstructed by Aoun’s demand for the Interior Ministry, which is currently held by Minister Ziad Baroud – a member of Sleiman’s cabinet bloc. Other March 8 parties reportedly also oppose Aoun’s demand.

On February 17, Aoun said that he considers Sleiman a “political adversary.”

  18. Go Aoun Go.

    For those crying about defending the President’s rights…….

    Where were you when Aoun had 70% of Christians of support behind him, and was a Presidential candidate?
    Where were when you Aoun wanted to Christian political authority to determine the highest office in the land?
    Where were you when Aoun wanted to restore the President’s rights?

    Suleiman turned into a political opponents and lost his consensus title. We saw it in 09 elections, and again in 2010 municipal elections. And we saw the incopmetency of “his” ministers – Baroud and Murr, and we even saw how he can’t even control his minister, who resigned.

    Aoun said a perfect statement: If Suleiman wants to be a political opponent, let him form a political party.

    Suleiman has no political or popular support, and he along with the Feb14 want to important Christian ministries? Feb14 are using him to steal the FPM share, and Suleiman is abusing his position and power.

    And to those who say Aoun wants the Presidency – he turned it down twice. Once in 1990, and a second time in Doha. So your excuse is becoming boring and repetitive.

    Aoun is trying to protect the Presidency by taking him out of the political front, and Suleiman insists on bringing down the position to a political game.

    And lastly, Aoun has enormous popular and political weight, and therefore has earned the right to big portfolios. If Suleiman wants to take Aoun’s (and the people behind him) rights, then expect Aoun to stand firm. Suleiman thinks he is entitled to whatever, without even a shred of political or popular support. Therefore, he is abusing his position.

    1. 70% of Christian support BEFORE he sold out to Syria and Iran or after?

      Tayyar tell your God damned Aoun to bring the soldiers he caused to imprison and humilate in Syrian jails to bring them home whatever left of them. Aoun has not accomplished anything in his life let alone can be a president. You say Suleimen trying to bring down the Presidency. Wasn’t Aoun who were fighting to keep the president strong? i mean his FPM jackasses are saying if President wants to practice Politics then he should form his own party. Excuse me but if President of the republic is not allowed to practice politics what is he doing in the gov’t. Its not like he’s the president of Nsetle corp where he can practice business. You people keep coming with rules and regulations as you see fit. I mean shame on you and your stupid leader for being used by Syria and Hezbollah and Iran and abusing the Christians rights. We thought you have higher intelligence than what you’re practicing now with this form and stubborn and stupid ways of politics. You people are deranged and abnoxious and that’s the least I can say about you. On top your leader is a pothead who is full of himself. Stop siding with Hezbollah and get back your respect and protect the Christians the right way not the Hezbollah way.

      1. Aoun will be your master one day … Yes we change the rules as we wish, go suck an egg.

          its too bad you keep going round and round while I ask your master why he never freed his soldiers. Is this the type of President and Chief you want to lead you? why this coward has not challenged Syria to release the soldiers? why you butthead?

    3. You are showing incoherent logic… If you support the presidency… You should let the president have a say in the cabinet formation. If not he is just a symbolic figure just like the president of Italy… When you say enormous popular weight, you sound like gadhafi with all due respect!
