Fatfat for elections to take place as scheduled


NNA - Future Trend Member, MP Ahmad Fatfat, stressed Sunday on the need to hold the parliamentary elections at their scheduled time and date. "For this reason, Future Trend has been open to all proposed suggestions for discussion by the House commission in charge of following-up on the electoral law issue," he added.


Fatfat accused Hizbollah of obsessive determination to have total control over the Parliament Council which exceeds the Christian concern for having proper representation in Parliament, he noted. Fatfat also accused the "Free Patriotic Trend" of providing cover for Hizbollah's in its attempt to place obstacles in the path of any proposed electoral law other than the "Orthodox Project Law" while claiming to preserve Christian representation.


Speaking during a dialogue forum organized by "Future Trend" in Dinnieh on Sunday, Fatfat considered that in spite of the importance of electoral law discussions at the current phase, yet the people's needs and burdens ought not to be omitted. He added that focusing on the elections has hidden the current government's numerous flaws and failures in the economic, electricity and telecommunications sectors, amongst several others.


Fatfat summarized the people's sufferings due to rationing in electric power supply or total electricity failure in certain regions. He considered this situation not solely the responsibility of a particular political trend alone, but actually the government's responsibility, and its Prime Minister for granting it complete cover; in addition to being Hizbollah's responsibiloty since it has taken control of the State, added Fatfat.


As for the electoral law issue, Fatfat stressed on the need for a unanimously supported consensus law for the elections to take place. He disclosed that March 14th Coalition Forces are in continuous coordination and are currently working on a mutual project to address various matters at hand in this respect, which shall be announced to the public soon, he noted.
