"Listen to be happy, try to be sad," with these few words, one can summarize the statements of the positions of the blocs and independent deputies who participated in the non-binding parliamentary consultations conducted by the caretaker Prime Minister-designate Najib Mikati. What is needed is clear: to expedite the formation of a government without wasting time and to lift the country from the bottom it has reached. Sources close to the Prime Minister-designate indicated through "Al-Anbaa" electronic that the consultations he conducted confirm the desire of most political forces to cooperate in quickly forming the government. Mikati has a clear vision for this matter, but he will not disclose it until the consultations are complete. Furthermore, the experience of the current government has given him a clear ability to manage this file realistically, in line with the new diversity in the parliamentary council.
Mikati's sources noted the necessity to form a genuine rescue government and not to leave the country at the mercy of uncertainty for four months. Two main steps lie ahead for the Prime Minister-designate: the first focuses on the anticipated meeting with President Michel Aoun to discuss the issue of government formation, and if he senses a willingness from him to form a government, he will present his vision for the shape of the government. The second issue pertains to the confidence in the government and how to secure it.
The sources emphasized that Mikati is working to form the government as quickly as possible under the current circumstances. If intentions are clear and there is a desire among the parties to cooperate, we could have a government in less than two weeks. They urged the adoption of mutual benefit, asserting that forming a government is profitable for all and should rely on mutual gain.
