A delegation from the March 14 alliance lawmakers will visit the Maronite church seat on Tuesday to express resentment over the lingering presidential vacuum.

Al-Mustaqbal newspaper reported Friday that the delegation will meet with Maronite Patriarch Beshara al-Rahi to denounce the ongoing vacuum.

The lawmakers will demand the end of the presidential stalemate, stress the importance of ending the political status quo and the swift election of a new head of state.

President Michel Suleiman’s term ended in May last year without the election of a successor as the ongoing disputes between the rival March 8 and 14 camps have thwarted the polls.

Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun’s Change and Reform and Hizbullah’s Loyalty to the Resistance blocs have been boycotting the elections, demanding that political powers agree on a compromise presidential candidate.
