Miqati’s Sources: Aoun Seeking to Impose his Will because of Hizbullah’s Support

Sources close to Premier Najib Miqati have criticized Free Patriotic Movement leader Michel Aoun for seeking to impose his demands on the cabinet with the backing of Hizbullah.

Aoun “considers himself the essential Maronite partner if not the only one,” the sources told pan-Arab daily al-Hayat on Monday.

“He got used to Hizbullah going along with him in everything,” they said, stressing that Aoun is seeking to impose his will on the government and the rest of the political parties in it because he is taking advantage of the Shiite party’s backing to his decisions.

The sources accused Aoun and his ministers of behaving as if the Taef agreement is inexistent.

They also accused the FPM chief and his allies of seeking to impose reform the way they see it.
