Strong Lebanon cites 64 government flaws
The "Strong Lebanon" bloc, chaired by MP Gebran Bassil, issued a report outlining 64 government shortcomings since the formation of the government 19 months ago. The report focused on failures in foreign policy, banking reforms, the financial gap, forensic auditing, as well as issues related to the judiciary, health, and energy. It also addressed concerns over rising prices and Syrian displacement. The report accused the government of violating laws in appointments, especially in the area of diplomatic nominations. It highlighted the energy crisis, noting that electricity supply hours have decreased from 10 to just two, causing financial losses estimated at around 400 million dollars. Additionally, the government was criticized for leaking politically motivated information about the Beirut port explosion and claiming that 87% of Syrian refugees have returned, despite actual figures indicating there are approximately 2.25 million displaced persons, two years after the end of the Syrian war. Bassil emphasized that the Free Patriotic Movement continues to perform oversight roles positively, recalling the promise made by Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri to hold a session of interrogations soon, and rejected any role in obstructive opposition tactics.
