"Strong Lebanon": We Will Not Participate in Tomorrow's Legislative Session

The "Strong Lebanon" bloc has decided not to participate in tomorrow's legislative session "because the proposed agenda does not meet the criteria of utmost necessity based on the principle adopted by the bloc for participating in legislative sessions in the absence of the President of the Republic under the title of urgent legislation." The bloc emphasized the "importance of the proposed laws and its significant contribution to proposing, discussing, and delivering them to the general assembly." It also discussed the French message directed to the head of the bloc and how to respond to it "in a way that affirms the bloc's positive outlook towards reaching consensual solutions regarding the presidency under clearly defined objective conditions related to the dialogue program, its limited time, and its association with successive election sessions, without wasting time and using it to change circumstances or imposing a president from one team on another."
