Prime Minister Najib Mikati told ministers in a meeting that he is “keen” on the formation of a new government, according to caretaker Health Minister Firass Abiad.
Mikati added, according to Minister Abiad, that he will discuss with President Michel Aoun two options: the draft line-up that he had proposed in his visit earlier this week or new proposals that include reviving the caretaker cabinet.
“Everyone has concerns over the possibility of presidential vacancy,” Minister Abiad commented in an interview with Radio Voice of All Lebanon.
“No one wishes for instability in the country, that’s why everyone must put efforts to secure the continuity of state institutions,” he noted.
