The Democratic Gathering parliamentary bloc issued Saturday a statement on Saturday, whereby it announced that it will abstain from taking part in the new government and the parliamentary consultations.
The statement added that “while the bloc continues to call for the facilitation of the formation of a new government capable of rescuing Lebanon from crisis and one that will acquire the trust of the people and the international parties, it noticed however that the course of designation and formation seemed to be a previously prepared scenario that will lead to the formation of a weak government unable to meet the aspirations of the Lebanese people.”
