Mahfoud: ” Aoun and Berri’s resignations are the introduction to any solution.”

Head of the Change Movement, Elie Mahfoud, said that some questions should be asked before starting the parliamentary consultations, if they occur. Who will choose the designated prime minister and on what criteria, who will form the government and whatever Hariri has suffered, won’t be confronting Mikati, will a designate prime minister be named without Hasan Nasrallah’s consensus?

And he tweeted: “Spare us Monday’s play, what is required is Aoun and Berri’s resignations as an introduction to any solution.”

The binding parliamentary consultations will take place next Monday, and a schedule of consultations has been set on this day for the blocs and independent deputies to nominate a new prime minister, according to a statement issued last Monday by the Presidency of the Republic.

Aoun tweeted on Wednesday: “The parliamentary consultations will take place on time, despite any diligence or suggestion, and any possible request to postpone it should be justified”
