Future on the line: will anti-Saudi comments get Alloush the ax?

2^min

Al-Akhbar newspaper reported that Future Movement bloc MP Mustafa Alloush is waiting for a regulatory decision from the Movement’s presidency that could end his political career in the party after he publically criticized the regime in Saudi Arabia and their “unhealthy ruling system.”

The newspaper added that Alloush received two phone calls, the first one on Wednesday from former PM Saad Hariri who expressed firm opposition towards Alloush’s statement and left him no room for explanations or justification, asking him to apologize for what he said.

Alloush received a second phone call from the Secretary General of the Future Movement Ahmad Hariri who stressed the importance of Saudi Arabia’s role in Lebanon.

A top-ranking leader from the Movement told Al-Akhbar that no decision has been taken in this regard till now, as the General Secretariat is still studying the case.

Alloush told Nharkom Said TV show on LBCI that he is not waiting for any decision from anyone, as the issue is purely political and does not have any other background, while he showed reservations and refused to comment on the phone calls question.

Alloush stressed that all the reforms that King Abdullah is implementing are for a better Saudi Arabia, pointing out that his comments on this issue should be discussed within the Future Movement and not publicly.
