Govt. formation struggle: Any progress soon?
Circles close to the Free Patriotic Movement told al-Joumhouria newspaper, in remarks published Wednesday, that the worst thing that might happen is to give the presidential powers to a caretaker government.
The sources urged for a quick formation before the end of President Michel Aoun's term.
While the daily considered that there will be no progress regarding the government formation in the coming days, al-Manar TV said that there is no rupture between Aoun and Prime Minister-designate Najib Mikati. "The hitch is in the suggestions, not in the appointments," al-Manar added.
On another note, Ali Darwish, former MP in Mikati's bloc, said that the PM-designate is open to all suggestions and affirmed that Mikati is on good terms with Aoun.
