Forming a government of specialists is a matter of time


Sabine Owais wrote in An-Nahar: At the conclusion of the first day of consultations, the representatives were able to sense the direction of the Prime Minister-designate towards a government that is not loose, preferably one of competent and specialized specialists in their portfolios, in a way that removes the cup of political tensions and opens the way for accelerating the process of launching the government’s work and implementing it. Reform projects and programs required of it. It was understood that the trend is moving more towards adopting the principle of separation of powers, by separating the prosecution from the ministry, and this is something that would keep provocative or embarrassing faces away from the government, so that the naming of ministers comes from outside the existing political group, through new faces that keep pace with the stage, even if they are There are faces who will not be completely new to the political scene, but who are not involved in party work.








The sources rule out that the formation will be prolonged in order to benefit from the internal and external momentum that accompanied the election and appointment tracks, revealing that the factors accelerating these two tracks will have a pressing role in the formation in order to launch the reconstruction workshop, because no team, especially the duo’s team, has an interest in delaying.

The option of a government of specialists, according to the first day’s consultations, is met with acceptance or at least no opposition in light of the stressful political atmosphere on the one hand, and the economic, financial and social challenges on the other hand, despite the caveats of such governments based on previous experiences in which technocratic governments were unable to work. Political sources attribute this deficit to the control of the political forces over technocratic ministers who often lack political experience and practice, which makes them revolve in the orbit of the party that appointed them, and they turn into their representatives at the cabinet table. The sources rule out the repetition of this scene today in light of the presence of a President of the Republic who has sufficient presence and a Prime Minister who has the sufficient legal and political background to absorb any political fluctuations or frictions, especially since the future government’s agenda is clear in its security aspects related to the implementation of International Resolution 1701 and the ceasefire agreement, and the economic one. And the financial related to launching the reconstruction workshop and entering into a program with the International Monetary Fund to achieve the required reforms.
