The repercussions of the cabinet session are still interacting between populism and settling political scores, but according to the insiders, the contacts succeeded to some extent in stopping sectarian agitation and political escalation, especially since contacts took place at the highest levels with Bkerki for this purpose, and he is waiting following the return of the Maronite Patriarch Beshara Al-Rai from Jordan is for things to calm down more, in light of a visit by the caretaker prime minister, Najib Mikati, to the patriarchal edifice to put the patriarch in the atmosphere that necessitated the holding of this government session, not to mention the contacts that took place between the Serail and the “Tashnak” party, praising his position that took the national option in The shadow of what the country is going through, through the participation of Minister of Industry George Boshkian in this session.
In this context, and on a parallel line, some political circles close to the “Progressive Socialist” Party and the “Democratic Gathering” confirmed that what was said regarding a four-party alliance once morest the background of what happened in the past hours of the ministerial session, and the positions that surrounded it, This has nothing to do with the truth, and there is no quartet or five-party alliance, etc. Rather, the convergence and understanding came on a social-human background that necessitated the occurrence of this session, but the party is open to all political and partisan forces, including those who boycotted the session, because dialogue is required and considered An urgent need at this stage, despite the discrepancies and disagreements regarding many files.
On the other hand, he reports that the caretaker prime minister, Najib Mikati, brings with him to the Chinese-Arab summit an integrated file on the Lebanese situation politically and economically, and seeks during this conference to obtain support from the participants, especially those concerned with the Lebanese file. In conclusion, attending this summit At this time, and following the political and constitutional debate that accompanied the ministerial session, it carries more than one indication that falls in the category of fortifying the government situation on the Arab and international levels, as evidenced by Mikati’s participation in this event, leading to blocking the way for the head of the Free Patriotic Movement, Representative Gebran Bassil and the President of the Republic. Former Michel Aoun, once morest the backdrop of what they did in the past days to obstruct the return of the cabinet to hold its sessions, in addition to the presidential signals that these positions bear in connection with the ongoing conflict on the Ain al-Tineh-Mirna Chalouhi line, and what is between them, the founder of the “orange movement.”
A political reference described the current scene with what happened in the year 1989, when the famous Richard Murphy agreement was blown up, which almost brought the former minister and deputy Mikhael Al-Daher as president of the republic, and from here, President Aoun and Basil seek to obstruct the settlement that might bring the army commander, General Joseph Aoun, Or the head of the Marada Movement, former MP Suleiman Franjieh, to reach Baabda Palace.
Therefore, these political and populist maneuvers were exhausted, as they did not receive cover from President Aoun’s allies and the “Free Patriotic Movement”, or at the international level, as Mikati’s participation in an international-Arab summit confirmed the constitutionality and legitimacy of the government, even if it was in a state of dispossession. On the other hand, Mikati will seek, in the next few days, to remove any ambiguities regarding what was said regarding the last session, meaning that he will have a role on the Christian level through meetings, contacts and consultations with all Christian components, with the aim of blocking the way for those who tried to win populism through Sectarian positions, and this is what the coming days will show.
