What if Salam wins the majority without obtaining any Shiite vote? Will his mandate be chartered?

Sources in the Forces of Change, via Lebanon Debate, referred to the statement of the head of the Lebanese Forces Party, Samir Geagea, who confirmed that “the charter in Lebanon is based on a balance between the Christian and Islamic sects, and is not sectarian limited to a Maronite, Sunni, or Shiite.”

Based on this principle, the sources believe that assigning Nawaf Salam to head the government, in the event that he obtains a majority of the votes of the representatives in the parliamentary consultations, is considered constitutional and legal, and does not conflict with the Coexistence Charter, which guarantees national balance.
