MP Alain Aoun of the “Strong Lebanon” bloc stated that “the Free Patriotic Movement did not nominate anyone for the presidency of the republic,” implying that former minister Ziad Baroud could be one of the options that the bloc could agree on if the conditions were right.

MP Aoun stressed that the presidential vacuum cannot continue, especially since the problem today is political, and the horizon of the vacuum cannot be long, and the current will not be part of it.

Finally, the MP considered that voting in Parliament voting in Parliament should not be a formality, but rather it must be prepared for with the other blocs, and that their political team has the right to vote with the white paper, not to disrupt the quorum of the sessions.
