Al-Samad Supports Taif Agreement
During a press conference at the House of Representatives, Deputy Jihad Al-Samad issued a call in defense of the Taif Agreement and the Constitution. He warned against attempts to undermine the constitutional powers enshrined by the agreement, particularly those related to the authorities of the Prime Minister and the Council of Ministers. He emphasized that the current presidency has seen serious violations of the powers of the council and its head, including usurping the Prime Minister's authority and the intervention of the President and his team in the work of ministries and public administrations, in contradiction to the Constitution, which states that the executive authority and its core powers belong to the Council of Ministers. He called for stopping the encroachment on the principle of national consensus and to preserve the Taif Agreement, warning that these practices’ violations could lead to constitutional chaos and push Lebanon back to a pre-Taif constitutional era.
