BEIROT: Lebanese President has asked the Prime Minister-designate Saad Hariri either to form a government or leave and pave the way for someone who can.
In a televised speech, Michel Aoun invited Saad Hariri to the presidential palace to form a government based on constitutional mechanisms in forming a government “without arguing or delaying.”
Two months later, Saad Hariri proposed an eighteen-member cabinet of technocrats, but President Aoun rejected it, saying that Prime Minister did not consult with the Lebanese presidency over the names.
