Jaafar criticizes council scandal and considers proposal to shorten his term

The article focused on the criticisms of Samir Geagea, leader of the Lebanese Forces, regarding the recent events in the parliamentary council. He considered them a major scandal that reflects a lack of responsibility among some deputies. He emphasized that the council failed to pass an amnesty law aimed at alleviating the injustice faced by a broad segment of Lebanese citizens. Instead, it approved laws without sufficient study, incurring additional financial burdens on the state's treasury, which increases the risks of slipping back into the vicious cycle that led to the financial and economic collapse. Following this, Geagea clarified that he is considering submitting a bill to shorten the current council’s term, especially since it has already been extended, given the absence of any justifiable reasons for such extension.
