FPM urges for resuming port blast probe, passing reform laws
The Free Patriotic Movement slammed Wednesday, in a statement, the obstruction of the Beirut blast probe by some politicians and judges and by the supreme court of Lebanon.
The statement also blamed Prime Minister-designate Najib Mikati for failing to form a new cabinet, obstructing reforms and not taking the required steps to activate the investigation.
The FPM expressed its support to the families of the victims and promised that the group will do everything it can to reveal the truth and punish the culprits.
It also lauded the President and the resistance for their role in the border demarcation negotiations between Lebanon and Israel.
On another note, the statement called Parliament to issue the four reform laws as soon as possible in order to sign a final agreement with the International Monetary Fund, and urged for holding the presidential elections on time.
"The FPM is committed to holding the presidential elections on time," the statement said, adding that the next president must most importantly be able to "represent the people."
