BEIRUT: Deputies in the Lebanese Parliament have accused President Michel Aoun of acting “as a party, not as a president entrusted with the constitution.” On Saturday, MP Anwar Al-Khalil said that Aoun’s media office’s statement on Friday “undermines the Lebanese people’s minds and destroys the hope of forming an important government. It is also a digression from obstinacy and stubbornness.” Friday’s statement said Aoun was a “partner in choosing ministers and distributing ministerial portfolios.” Al-Khalil reminded Aoun that “the constitution named you as president, a symbol of national unity and a protector of the constitution.” “Your advisers are making you one team. Enough bickering! Support the whole country and save it from collapse,” Al-Khalil said.
