FPM Adamant about Getting Key Cabinet Post
Telecommunications Minister Jebran Bassil said a decision by Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun to abandon his demand for proportional representation in Cabinet was the "maximum they could get."
"Facilitation efforts stop here," Bassil said during a political meeting the FPM held at Rimmal resort, adding that Tayyar will not give up his right to a key Cabinet seat.
The daily As Safir said Thursday”s Tayyar meeting with a large number of political cadres was aimed at sending out "political messages" to PM-designate Saad Hariri, stressing the "successful experience" of Aoun”s movement in assuming responsibility of a key and sensitive services portfolio.
