Free Patriotic Movement MP Mario Aoun told the VDL (93.3) radio that his bloc did not expect the Constitutional Council’s ruling, considering it a “flop.”
He added that his bloc has asked Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri for an urgent session to “debrief the government about many things including the Constitutional Council’s decision.”
“The ruling placed the FPM alone against all the political forces in the country,” Aoun said.
“The (electoral) law was approved by all political forces in 2017,” Aoun stated, claiming that what has happened comes from certain “hostile backgrounds against the FPM.”
Aoun went on to say that “doubts may arise relating to the strategic alliance” between the FPM and Hizbullah. "Things can be resolved,” he added. “We are looking for understandings not for disagreements."
