Lebanese Parliament Affirms Alliances

The article focused on the sessions of the Lebanese Parliament, which revealed political intersections among the various blocs, especially regarding the abolition of the death penalty and the general amnesty law. The council approved the abolition of the death penalty with the approval of most blocs, while Hezbollah and the Free Patriotic Movement opposed it. The following day, the general amnesty law was approved after deputies from the Movement and Hezbollah withdrew from the session in protest of the Defense Minister being denied entry to the hall. The session also saw tensions over the minister's powers, with Prime Minister Nohad Machnouk affirming that government decisions follow the principle of ministerial solidarity, while opposition deputies stated that the withdrawals were a response to violations in the minister’s presence. Despite the convergence in stance between Hezbollah and the Movement, the Deputy Leader of the Movement emphasized that they do not have an alliance with them, stressing the Movement’s firm stance against releasing those who killed the Lebanese Army. At the same time, most legal blocs supported the opposition of some deputies, and several leaders considered that abolishing the death penalty is an important step to enhance human rights and improve Lebanon's international image.
