"Help yourselves so we can help you," is a phrase repeated by Western and Arab officials who visited Lebanon to assist it in overcoming its persistent crises. Those abroad are also meeting and discussing the Lebanese file from all angles, leading everyone to grow weary of us under the banner of "we will not be more royal than the king." The example is clear from the majority of officials who are indifferent to everything happening, amidst various forms of collapse that have reached a peak towards an abyss that can no longer accommodate anything else. It is impossible to list all the hardships experienced by Lebanese people daily, and the answer is repeated: "There is no solution, nor is there anyone to mourn." The country is on a path to deterioration, with an end that seems close, coinciding with tremors and earthquakes that have not been at this scale. Catastrophes are now surrounding us from all sides, and Lebanese people no longer know where misfortunes will strike from.
Moreover, the presidential vacuum seems to dominate all mediation efforts which have ceased to be effective, while the key to the solution starts with the regularity of institutions, the election of a president, and the formation of a government. Nothing of this seems near, as the international community has "washed its hands" of Lebanon's predicament, which is almost entirely absent from the international map. In this context, sources from the deputies who visited Washington and met with American officials point out that there is no international trust in Lebanon, which they have understood, and "that we have definitively exited their agenda since the situation is out of control." Consequently, state institutions are collapsing sequentially, and fears have multiplied as the educational and judicial sectors head towards ruin, as well as the banking sector that is undergoing a systematic destruction process.
Regarding the legislative session, it has been reported that the Speaker of the Parliament, Nabih Berri, has not abandoned it, and communications are ongoing to convene it, with an invitation for a "necessity legislation" session to be issued when the necessary conditions are met. However, there will be no session currently after the head of the "Free Patriotic Movement," Gebran Bassil, renewed his position rejecting participation in it. Meanwhile, it has been rumored within "the Movement" that disputes have arisen within the "Strong Lebanon" bloc since some of its deputies have informed their colleagues that they will participate despite Bassil's rejection.
In parallel with all the crises surrounding the country, from economic to financial, educational, living, and banking, as well as the sit-ins, protests, and rampant inflation that have led to scenes not witnessed even during the war, observers affirm that an explosion is inevitable and therefore its outlines are strongly present. It has become just a stone's throw away, as Lebanon finds itself on the brink of collapse before the eyes of nations that tried to save it, without any assistance from its officials who are only seeking their own interests while their homeland has reached the depths of hell. This indicates that Lebanon is now on a dangerous financial and living fault line.
