Jumblat Informs Nasrallah his Stance from Electricity Draft Law is Technical
إقرأ هذا الخبر بالعربية
Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat has reportedly informed Hizbullah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah that his stance from an electricity draft-law is purely technical and has no political motives.
Jumblat told Nasrallah’s assistant Hussein Khalil that his stance is aimed at improving the conditions of the implementation of the electricity project which is based on allocating $1.2 billion to Energy Minister Jebran Bassil to generate 700 Megawatts of electricity.
Khalil was carrying with him a message from Nasrallah asking Jumblat if his stance had any political motive.
Ministers loyal to Jumblat refused to allow Bassil to spend the $1.2 billion funds without any supervision. They suggested the formation of a technical committee.
The meeting between Jumblat and Khalil was held on Monday at his residence in Clemenceau. Speaker Nabil Berri’s political assistant Minister Ali Hassan Khalil, Hizbullah official Wafiq Safa and Social Affairs Minister Wael Abou Faour, who is loyal to Jumblat, also attended the talks.

Wheeling and dealing at the expense of the Lebanes public at large. When will this nightmare of corruption ever end? This charade makes me sick to my stomach.

Jumblat, master caméléon , adapting to every change of environnement, but maybe he might have forgotten he can predict some things but not the whole future, and at the first occasion Hezbollah gets to assassinate this coward, it will do so, maybe before it was funny for them , but now he is bothering them on the ground as well with his yoyo jumping, so basically what Hassouné said : You can play yoyo as much as you want at home and on broadcasts, but dont dare stop our plans with our servants the Tayyar, because you will have crossed the red line, and death will be upon you.
