No i tikaaf
On the other hand, sources close to Prime Minister Hariri denied Al-Nahar any conversation about his tikaaf and claimed that nothing justified such discussions.
According to a cabinet meeting, sources said that Prime Minister Hariri "is not in favor of transferring the political confrontation to the cabinet table. He prefers to create a conducive atmosphere at a meeting and bet on the movement of President Nabih Berri and the need to calm the speech of all parties.The cabinet should translate the solution and not be transformed. " On two fronts, or to be exposed to a vertical division that affects the rest of the vital files of the economy and others. "
She explained that Mr. Hariri was uncomfortable with the high intensity of the debates and the specifications imposed by the parties concerned and that he felt that dialogue was the realistic way of finding a way out. and that the country was facing complex situations. He bet on the calm and success of the reconciliation efforts and was in contact with President Berri in this regard. I went in the direction of escalating and leaked media that put the judiciary in the circle of targeting and hindered reconciliation efforts as well as wagering on a Cabinet meeting on Thursday.
The sources expected the truce drivers to be managed again after the return of Prime Minister Hariri to strengthen the Cabinet meeting.
She stressed that relations with the President of the Republic were not discussed or questioned, because there is no political stability without healthy and stable relations between the two presidents.
Declaration of the American Embbady
At the time, the US Embbady in Beirut was concerned by the statement expressing his country's support for fair and transparent judicial review, without any political interference. He hoped that the Lebanese authorities would solve this problem in order to deliver justice without igniting sectarian and regional conflicts with political antecedents.
Although Baabda Palace did not comment on the statement of the US Embbady, except perhaps what President Michel Aoun said before the statement that "the Lebanon is not subject to dictation and no one is affected by it ", the private information of the general indicated that the Minister Gibran Bbadil expressed his resentment towards the intention of the Ambbadador to publish the statement, which had been preceded by Baabda, rejecting any dictation of any party whatsoever.
However, official sources have considered through Al-Akhbar that this statement constituted an unusual interference in Lebanese affairs: everyone knows that the embbady expresses its position on Lebanese affairs behind closed doors. Foreign Affairs. "It is enough for the ministry to return to its archives to remember what Foreign Minister Ali al-Shami did in 2011. Then, after visiting MP Nicolas Fattoush and trying to influence his position at During the parliamentary consultations, he summoned Ambbadador Mora Connelly, saying that his behavior was an interference in Lebanese affairs and a violation of diplomatic standards. "The message yesterday is more direct than that of Connelly. and it remains to be seen how the Foreign Office will deal with them.
President Aoun continues his contacts
At that time, President Aoun continued his contacts by baduring his visitors that he was attached to the judiciary and was awaiting his speech as a result of investigations he was conducting on the Qabrishmoun incident. Any attempt to disrupt the work of the judiciary is unacceptable and will not fail and the judiciary will continue to do so.
The sources were surprised to spark the relationship between the President of the Republic and the Prime Minister because it is a normal relationship and there was nothing to discuss today. .
Informed sources told the brigade, along with the answer to the political and judicial reading of the Socialist Party, "that the judiciary is ongoing, whether it be judicial, military or criminal" , confirming the involvement in the investigations, whether by suspicion or conviction pronounced by any commitment in respect of a decision made by the judiciary.
It considered that the judiciary took into account all the data and investigations and based its decisions on this basis, pointing out that the judiciary had managed its permission with Altrsha on any declaration or conference and any work done, but he There was a judge around the interrogation points and whether there was threat, sympathy or intimidation or otherwise. One can resort to it, namely a judicial inspection and the request for referral of a judge because of the decision of the authority involved and decisions made by the President of the Court of Appeal of Beirut on the decisions of Judge Basil and we are committed to doing so.
As far as the political issue is concerned, things are still topical, but the cabinet must meet in one way or another because the country can not be captured in this period, which requires significant steps at several levels because of the dispute over the Council of Justice.
She pointed out that the government should meet and that there is no other choice as to how, when and at which Fahdah's invitation to settle logistical issues, but that the Council of Ministers must meet and that he is convinced that faithful leaders and officials of the constitutional authorities have come to the conviction that it is necessary to meet and decide, Question of the Council of the Bench There is a mechanism that supports the subject of decision-making and is attached to what is published.
Different agendas for presidents
This reading from sources close to Baabda revealed that the three presidents who met on the need to hold a cabinet meeting had different agendas, but they disagree on his agenda, where Prime Minister Hariri insists that the meeting is not explosive, in that the question of the Council of Justice is put to the vote. According to President Aoun, this could lead to an explosion of the government of the interior, while Berri seemed closer to the logic of the prime minister, with regard to the need to hold a cabinet meeting separately from the government. Qabrishmoun incident, that is, this incident should not be on the agenda of the meeting. Pending the completion of the work of the military court.
Informed sources believe that if the presidents agree with Berri's proposal, a cabinet meeting can take place immediately after Aid al-Adha. President Aoun plans to spend part of the summer at Beiteddine Presidential Palace from the middle of this month. It is hoped that the solution will come before settling in the summer palace or perhaps with him, and ending the break between him and Jumblatt, who traditionally welcomed the president when he went to the palace.
Berry turns off his engines
However, the sources added to their optimism, pointing out that things are more complicated than this simplification, where overlapping political and partisan considerations and electoral interests and alliances, to add more tension in relations, highlighting that President Berri had announced yesterday to shut down its engines, His ships are not looking for "his efforts, nor his initiative, which is far removed from the consensus of all political blocs, expressing his resentment at the high-ceiling speeches that had an impact negative on attempts at calm.
The sources pointed out that the relationship between President Berri and President Aoun was a communication relationship and that there was no disagreement between the two men, but after Aoun's speech, the question of Qabrishmoun became, preferring not to interfere, warning of "the accuracy of the situation at all levels, at the economic and social level and even at the level of relations between the two men." Political forces. "
Political sources told Asharq Al-Awsat that the communication between Berri and Aoun had not been interrupted and that Berri was not in conflict with the Lebanese president and did not contradict him.
