Waving the “one-color government” … and these signs

Al-Akhbar newspaper wrote, under the headline “brandishing the“ one-color government ”:“ The meeting of the three presidents, Michel Aoun, Nabih Berri and Hassan Diab, on board the plane, back to Kuwait and back to Beirut again, did not produce a magic solution to the government’s stalling situation after the ambassador’s apology Mustafa Adeeb not to form the government. Nevertheless, the information indicates that there is almost an agreement to hold a round of consultations for a short period, in an attempt to revitalize the French initiative. But in the event that these efforts do not lead to a solution, and former Prime Minister Saad Hariri continues to wait for the Saudi veto to be lifted and gain the approval and green light of the Americans, then one of the alternative solutions will be to go towards a government of one color, similar to that of Hassan Diab. This proposition is not new. Rather, it was discussed “incidentally” between Hezbollah and the Amal Movement on the one hand, and the Free Patriotic Movement on the other hand, on the basis of not leaving the country in a state of chaos and a total collapse if Hariri stuck to his coup endeavor, and in the event that he remained insistent on waiting for external firings In order to proceed with a formation that reflects the results of the parliamentary elections and takes into account the right of the political forces that name the president in charge to participate in the composition and naming their ministers. The one-color government hinted at by former Finance Minister Ali Hassan Khalil during his interview on Al-Manar channel yesterday evening, saying: “We did not practice the role of the large majority, and we hope that they will not lead us to that. We were believers, and we are still, by consensus and there are no red lines in the relationship with anyone. Neither with former prime ministers nor with Hariri, but not the confiscation of the entire formation process. ” He continued, “The issue of the Ministry of Finance we raised before and we provided our justifications for naming a Minister of Finance from the Shiite community, which was established immediately after Taif, and everything has justifications from the” troika “and others. We affirm that this matter strengthens the national partnership. We have great observations on Hariri’s statement. Concerning government affairs, but this is his position, and he has the right to express, as for us, to express our position and adhere to it. ” Hassan Khalil denied that Muhammad Baasiri’s name had been put forward as a candidate for prime minister. “Since Mustafa Adeeb’s apology, there has been no contact or discussion between us and anyone.” He explained that during the formation of the previous government, Hariri presented “three names: Muhammad al-Hout, Judge Ghassan Oweidat and Mustafa Adeeb, and he preferred Adeeb from among them. The Council of Ministers is the center of the decision, and regardless of the form of the government, there is a political responsibility for it, and the participants in it must be aware of the role they are playing. ”And on the initiative of former Prime Minister Najib Mikati, which proposes forming a government that includes 6 political ministers and 14″ technical “ministers, he said Khalil said Mikati “did not speak with us or Hezbollah about his latest proposal, and no step was taken in this regard. We are not putting red lines on anything, and we are ready to discuss any formula positively,” noting that Presidents Aoun and Berri “spoke on the plane that took them. To Kuwait about the generalities of the government’s formation, they did not go into details Press here.
