From this angle, and in parallel with the revitalization of international and regional efforts to reach an understanding on a new President of the Republic, Prime Minister-designate Najib Mikati will visit Baabda Palace, and President Michel Aoun will meet to discuss the government file, from the angle of the 24 ministers he submitted to the President of the Republic on June 29, and the amendments Required, or to disregard any change, as well as looking into the possibility of forming a government of 30 ministers, adding 6 ministers of state to the current government, in terms of numbers. Yesterday, visitors to Baabda conveyed the president’s desire to form a new government in agreement with the designated prime minister in accordance with the rules of the constitution and national partnership, and to give the opportunity to discuss to reach a practical understanding.
