MP Ibrahim Mneimneh: Change MPs call for reformist president in Lebanon

2^min

In a recent statement to "Al-Sharq Al-Awsat," MP Ibrahim Mneimneh emphasized the importance of a new president who can offer a reformist vision on both political and economic levels in Lebanon.

Mneimneh also addressed criticisms directed at Change MPs from other opposition parties, including the Lebanese Forces, Kataeb, and Progressive Socialist Party.

This article was originally published in, translated from the Lebanese newspaper Al-Sharq Al-Awsat.

According to Mneimneh, Change MPs seek a president who can reassure the Lebanese people and is committed solely to the state.

"We have translated these specifications into a presidential initiative that we discussed with traditional opposition parties, and we proposed several names, but they refused to consider any of them," he stated.

He also added, "the opposition parties are still not united. Even when they voted for Michel Moawad in several sessions, the imbalance in their commitments emerged, resulting in reduced votes session after session. This is evidence that they are not in agreement about presidential elections."
