Hashem: No Cabinet Reshuffle and No Intention to Isolate LF
MP Qassem Hashem of Speaker Nabih Berri’s Development and Liberation bloc announced Sunday that the Cabinet “will remain as it is,” denying reports of an imminent Cabinet reshuffle.
“The issue of replacing some ministers has not been raised and everything that has been said in this regard is mere speculation. Some talk happened but there was no such intention,” Hashem said in an interview with Radio Liban Libre.
Asked about reports of an inclination to “isolate the Lebanese Forces, the MP stressed that “any political party cannot be isolated.”
“Everyone must be involved in the national decision and in protecting Lebanon and fending off the threats,” Hashem added.
“These ideas have not been raised by the political forces,” he emphasized.
