Head of the “Democratic Gathering”, MP Taymour Jumblatt, reaffirmed today the position of his Bloc and the Progressive Socialist Party in calling for “searching for a consensus figure for the presidency of the republic, who will not be a side or constitute a challenge to anyone, and has a reform and rescue vision for the country, for this is Lebanon’s basic guarantee as it flounders under economic, social, financial and other crises.’
This call has been previously sent out by PSP Chief Walid Jumblatt and announced in all communications and deliberations at home and abroad.
‘Enough with the imaginations of some, our position is the same, and we look forward to a moment of relief for the homeland, through a new era that does not tolerate the reproduction of crises and establishes its return to existence and the formation of its constitutional, executive and administrative powers,’ MP Jumblatt said in an issued statement.
During Saturday’s meetings at Al-Mukhtara Palace, MP Jumblatt also discussed the issue of municipal elections and the looming atmosphere of obstruction or postponement in this regard, calling for “removing all obstacles that prevent their holding and stand before this important juncture on the way to building the state and preserving institutions.”
