Molawi to Skeptics and Speculators: Avoiding Vacuums Requires Holding Elections Instead of Postponing Them

The office of the Minister of Interior and Municipalities, Bassam Molawi, stated today, Tuesday, that in light of the speculations witnessed in the parliamentary council and the series of statements targeting the Ministry of Interior and Municipalities as an excuse to postpone the municipal and elective elections, the Ministry reiterates Minister Bassam Molawi's clear stance, "both abroad and domestically," regarding its administrative readiness to hold elections whenever funding is approved. It questioned, "Isn't it clear that the political will has led the parties to secure a quorum for the legislative session and agree to postpone the municipal and elective elections?" The statement added, "To the speculators and skeptics: Silence speaks louder than any populist rhetoric, avoiding a vacuum can be achieved by holding elections instead of postponing them."
