FPM accuses Mikati, Suleiman of obstructing cabinet formation

Share:

FPM leader MP Michel Aoun told Hezbollah’s Al-Manar TV station: “The PM-designate Nagib Mikati and president Michel Suleiman are impeding the cabinet formation process and there are foreign reasons behind the delay in forming the new cabinet.”

Aoun did not spell out the foreign reasons

A key issue in the government formation is reportedly the dispute between Suleiman and Aoun over the ministry of Interior which is currently being held by Caretaker Interior Minister Ziad Baroud who represents Suleiman. Aoun , backed by Hezbollah has been demanding this ministry and has been opposed to any share in the cabinet for Suleiman. Suleiman on the other hand insists that this portfolio should not be given to any extremist political group and should be held by a centrist.

Hezbollah is reportedly also creating obstacles for Mikati for insisting on including in the cabinet Faisal Karami , son of former PM Omar Karami as the representative of the Sunnis.

FPM and its allies are focusing their criticism against Suleiman and Mikati. MP Alain Aoun told OTV station :” The problem was not about Baroud as a person, but rather about the political sponsor of the interior ministry ( Suleiman ). How can we end the cabinet formation impasse if Suleiman doesn’t approve the newly suggested candidates?”

Former minister Wiam Wahab a staunch ally of Hezbollah and Syria admitted that March 8 alliance failed in forming a cabinet because it has never taken governing Lebanon seriously . He told MTV that Suleiman is the main obstacle facing the cabinet formation and he now favors firing Mikati as PM designate .

In a change of heart Wahab praised Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea describing his recent moves as “positive”

Qanso

β€œPrime Minister-designate Najib Mikati should commit to our [principles] because he was named for the premiership on that basis,” Baath Party MP Assem Qanso told MTV on Monday.

Mikati is responsible for part of the cabinet formation delay, Qanso also said, adding that the PM-designate presented two cabinet formation drafts to President Michel Sleiman.

β€œSuleiman signed neither of them, and I do not know why.”

March 8 insists on being granted the Interior Ministry portfolio because parliamentary elections will be held soon, the MP also said, adding that the elections require an β€œethical” minister.

β€œWe do not doubt Interior Minister Ziad Baroud’s morals, but we want…to cancel political sectarianism.”

Mikati should be frank

Minister of State Jean Ogassapian, a key march 14 official told Future TV on Monday that Mikati should be frank with the Lebanese people and inform them on what is obstructing cabinet formation.

Ogassapian also said that Hezbollah is attempting to violate President Michel Suleiman and Mikati’s jurisdictions.

β€œThis stage calls for resorting to national dialogue.” He said

          Rozana, thanks for the diagnosis … I’m not brained washed by anyone. If you experience what I experienced you would have the same thinking. March farteen are nothing but that and Aoun is on the right tract. Just ask yourself about the availability of electricity, water, roads and so on.

        7. availabilty of electricity: jibran bassil aka aoun junior’s job….all he does all day is blame raya el hassan for not paying bills
          availabilty of water: same as above
          availabilty of gas and petrol: he ADMITTED last time that he PURPOSELY increased prices…and somehow blamed it on the president.
          availabilty of a government: NON EXISTENET….why? bc of aoun and his selfish demands.

          Rozana, I don’t live in Lebanon but I’m in constant contact. I don’t defend the Basil guy but from what I understand that the electricity situation has improved drastically since he became a minster. We have a place in Zouk that used to get 4 hrs and my sister lives in Ashrafieh used to get 24 hrs. Electricity produced in Zouk and used to be pumped to Hariri land 24 hrs a day. Now Zouk get 12 hrs a day and Hariri land is being somewhat rationed. A+ for Aoun

          This Raya minster is nothing but a Hariri instrument. Taxes needed to be cut and the only way Basil could force the Raya beauty to cut it was to do what he did. A for Aoun

          You need to join me in supporting the right and opposing the wrong.

After all we Egyptians love going on Lebanese news sites and caring so much for their country, my name is Beiruti that proves that im Egyptian because the capital of Egypt is Beirut. Damn you must teach me how you are figuring out Egyptians go on this website, you must be using Iranian internet hacking systems.
