🌲 - 🇱🇧 Quick summary of yesterday's session:

Lebanon’s Parliament held a heated session to question Prime Minister Nawaf Salam’s government six months after its formation, with the issue of Hezbollah’s weapons dominating debate. Over 50 MPs requested to speak, and Speaker Nabih Berri allotted time per bloc, while vowing to hold a government accountability session every three legislative meetings.

Most MPs pressed for a clear timeline to transfer all arms to the state, while Hezbollah’s bloc insisted any disarmament must be tied to guarantees against Israeli threats. MP Ibrahim Mousawi defended the resistance’s weapons, citing concerns over the army’s capacity and foreign vetoes on military aid, while MP Ali Fayad stressed that UN Resolution 1701 only applies south of the Litani River, calling other areas a purely Lebanese matter.

Parties like the Lebanese Forces, Kataeb, NLP, and several independents demanded disarmament as a national priority. In contrast, Free Patriotic Movement leader Gebran Bassil advocated for dialogue over confrontation. Some MPs criticized the government for failing on reforms and transparency, while others, like MP Fouad Makhzoumi, insisted that all arms-related discussions be returned to the Cabinet table.

Speaker Berri’s decision to call the session, the first of its kind since 2017, sparked speculation about whether it was a genuine accountability move or a step toward reshuffling, or even collapsing the government.
