Parliamentary consultations resumed at 6:00pm followed in the line
of positive vibrations palpated so far between premier-designate
and the country's political forces. The Armenian MP's bloc labeled
their meeting with Hariri as extraordinary. "We are vastly content
with Hariri's stance over forming a national unity government which
ensures the participation of all the vital political forces in the
country", said MP Hagop Bakradonian.
"We have unanimously agreed on strengthening security and military
forces in Lebanon in an effort to fight corruption and enhance
stability in the country", he added.
So far, feedback on the ongoing consultations has been labeled as
productive and alleged to be very different than those taken place
almost two weeks ago.
"We have named Hariri as premier-designate over again because we
believe that he is the most appropriate person for this task as he
represents the public majority of Sunnis," MP Bakradonian announced.
Speaker of the Armenian MP's bloc did not find necessary a figure
playing the mediator's role between PM-designate and leader of the
FPM Michel Aoun for he believes that the meeting between the two is
bound to happen anytime soon.
On this front, Free Patriotic Movement sources said Saad Hariri will
hold a second round of talks with the FPM bloc on Thursday.
MP Ibrahim Kenaan said Thursday's talks will focus on financial
policies, the authorities of some funds, councils, ministries and
plans to set up a planning ministry.
He said the FPM bloc is open for dialogue over the formulas that
agreement should be reached on for cabinet formation on condition
that they are implemented equally on everyone.
Kenaan said the bloc's secretariat-general will hold a meeting
headed by Aoun on Tuesday and another larger meeting the next day in
preparation for the consultations with Hariri.
Meanwhile, Jamaa Islamiya MP Imad al-Hout declared that the second
round consultations wi e around proposing names and the respective
portfolios for the Lebanese president to consent.
>From his part, Minister Tamam Salam after meeting with
premier-designate assured that "the government shall not be formed
unless all political forces work together and collaborate with Hariri".
Next in the round of consultations came MP Boutros Harb who warned
that the "system in Lebanon cannot go on as it is lacking both the
legislative and executive powers". He, henceforth, called to facilitate
PM-designate Hariri's task.
