LF MP: Once again, the establishment has protected itself
MP Pierre Bou Assi of the Lebanese Forces bloc on Tuesday lamented that the political establishment has “protected itself,” shortly after the election of Nabih Berri and Elias Bou Saab as parliament’s speaker and deputy speaker.
“Once again, the establishment has protected itself. As for the Lebanese Forces, it has renewed the pledge of honor with the Lebanese and Lebanon,” Bou Assi tweeted.
The LF had nominated MP Ghassan Hasbani for the deputy speaker post before withdrawing his nomination due to failure to win the support of the October 17 bloc.
