Interior Minister Marwan Charbel said Saturday that he refuses any compromise on the electricity draft law at the expanse of the electoral law, voicing surprise on the opposition of the National Front Leader MP Walid Jumblatt to the proportional representation.
“The electricity plan bolstered by the Energy Ministry is politically and not technically disputed”, Charbel told Sawt al-Mada, adding that, unlike what certain sides are insinuating, neither he nor the Cabinet is politically targeted by the chain of the internal security incidents.
Asked about his priorities for the upcoming phase, Charbel said that he will be mainly focusing on the security situation, the electoral law, the administrative decentralization as well as road advertisement.
