The political assistant to Parliament Speaker, Representative Ali Hassan Khalil, confirmed that “a dangerous scenario was being planned by the supporters of the former minister, Jihad Azour,” noting that “some were planning to plunge the country into the unknown, by saying that Azour got more than 65 votes and that he won.” .
And he stated, in a statement to Al-Mayadeen, that “some of the positions of the Lebanese Forces and the Lebanese Kataeb parties indicate that they were part of this dangerous scheme,” stressing that “any sane person cannot think of passing such a matter without introducing the country into a major crisis. He pointed out that “what the change-making parliamentarians talked about indicates that we were facing tremendous pressure,” stressing that “a kind of external and internal pressure was exerted on some representatives.”
Khalil pointed out that “the Progressive Socialist Party and former MP Walid Jumblatt justified the vote for Azour that it would not succeed, and that it was a test “balloon”, and we were not convinced by that,” declaring that “we are open to any dialogue with the Free Patriotic Movement,” but the leadership of the “movement” I set a precondition by excluding the candidacy of the head of the “Marada” movement, Suleiman Franjieh. And he stated, “I do not think that Saudi Arabia was part of the dangerous scheme that was being prepared for it after the last presidential election session.”
