MP Jihad al-Samad stressed following a meeting held by the “Consultative Gathering” MPs that any initiative that fails to admit to recognize the right of the independent Sunni MPs to be represented in the cabinet will not be considered.
In this regard, sources told LBCI that the “Consultative Gathering” deputies are waiting for a call from the Director General of General Security Maj. Gen. Abbas Ibrahim who will be in charge of exchanging ideas concerning the cabinet issue.
According to the sources, any meeting, if possible, between PM-designate Saad Hariri and the independent Sunni MPs will be held at Baabda palace in the presence of President Michel Aoun.
