In response to what was circulated that Hezbollah and the Free Patriotic Movement agreed on a coup, against the leadership of General Joseph Aoun, and removing him from continuing as head of the military institution, by extending his term after the end of his term by virtue of reaching the legal age, sources in the movement and the party made it clear that there is no truth to coups, but rather There are options, and Hezbollah is meeting with MP Gebran Bassil not to extend the term for General Aoun.
Informed political sources told Al-Liwaa that the tour of the Strong Republic Bloc to the parliamentary blocs to seek its opinion regarding the expedited law proposal to postpone the dismissal of the Army Commander has been completed, and that there is a desire on its part to secure broad parliamentary cover to hold a legislative session with a single item related to the extension of General Joseph Aoun.
The sources explained that this issue is under discussion, and that what President Mikati said is that in caution there is safety and in haste there is remorse, is a clear confirmation that there is an urgent need for it to be simmered, declaring at the same time that the opposition will press in the next month specifically to resolve the issue before any anticipated vacancy. In the military establishment, its position is consistent with what the Maronite Patriarch recently said.
