MP Nabil Nicolas of the Change and Reform bloc said that no suggestions have been made yet on the formation of the government, "so we can't agree on anything or reject anything."
Nicolas said that the problem over the establishment of the government is not coming from the opposition, but from the majority.

"All parties have the right to handle any ministry," Nicolas said. "But no ministry should be exclusive to anyone," he added.
"Why can't we demand that the Treasury Ministry be given to us? Or even try to get the Defense Ministry, too?"

Nicolas accused the (so-called) 'majority' of perpetrating this May's security incidents in order to divert the attention from the primary issue.
"US interference is still very evident, and its project is still prevailing in Lebanon," Nicolas added.
