President Michel Aoun asserted that he “did not despair” on the success of initiatives aimed at easing the cabinet hurdles, the National News Agency reported on Monday.
He said despite everything that is happening, he “did not despair on the initiatives for reaching a solution with the presence of sane people, provided that the constitution and powers entrusted by constitutional authorities, primarily the presidency, are not violated”.
Aoun’s position was conveyed by MP, Maj. Gen. Jamil el-Sayed after a meeting between the two at Baabda Palace.
NNA said the two men discussed the current political developments at the government level, and the parties’ positions in that regard.
