Bassil slams Mikati for 'unilateral' cabinet decisions
Free Patriotic Movement chief Jebran Bassil slammed Thursday caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati for taking unilateral decisions by signing dozens of extraordinary approvals on his own.
"Those who are keen on the constitution and the presidency, wouldn't boycott extraordinary parliamentary sessions and attend ordinary Cabinet sessions," Bassil said in a tweet.
Bassil wondered why is everybody "suspiciously" silent about these cabinet sessions under the pretext of necessity.
He also accused the ministers of discussing between them a replacement to central bank governor Riad Salameh.
"Any party or any minister who participates in this crime is ethically and politically responsible for remaining silent over corruption and for accepting that the country be ruled without the Christian component," Bassil said, warning that those who accumulate mistakes would "reap an explosion."
