There are several ongoing obstacles to Lebanon’s cabinet formation process, but among the more significant ones is the presidential ambition of Gebran Bassil, the head of the largest Maronite Christian party, the Free Patriotic Movement. Mr Bassil believes that if he fails to have enough ministers in the government and allows his political rivals to dominate it, he may never see the presidency.
The question is whether Mr Bassil can realistically expect to become president at all in the next election, which is in October 2022. There are really only two ways that he can hope to succeed the current president, his father in law, Michel Aoun. He either has to win a majority of votes in Parliament, or will need Hezbollah to impose him on the political class, as they did Mr Aoun in 2016.

President Trump said people should boycott baseball over MLB’s response to Georgia’s new voting law.
In an interview on Tuesday, he said people are giving up on baseball, adding “woke is not good for our country.” He went on to slam professional baseball’s decision to move this year’s All-Star Game from Atlanta to Denver over election law changes.

This was the first statement put out by Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri in a tweet following a New York Times article revealing that the billionaire premier splashed some $16m on South African model Candice van der Merwe in 2013.
Van der Merwe stood trial in her home country in 2013 over the mysterious money transfer, but the benefactor at the time was identified merely as an unnamed Arab admirer whom she met at a Seychelles resort dubbed a Playboy mansion for Arab princes .
