How do Lebanese MPs assess the government’s performance to date?

This video presents the views of Lebanese MPs on the government’s performance under the current circumstances, as well as their discussions about the tools available to the state to assert its sovereignty.

The video features differing assessments of the Lebanese government’s performance. Some MPs consider it relatively acceptable given the difficult regional and international circumstances, while also pointing to the tools available to the state to strengthen its authority and sovereignty.

Others, however, strongly criticize the government’s performance, describing it as “below zero” when it comes to providing essential services such as electricity, water, internet access, and other basic services.

The MPs stress the need for greater efforts while warning against relying too heavily on taxes or other measures that would increase the financial burden on citizens.

Some also describe the government’s political and negotiating performance as “below the required level,” arguing that it does not reflect the expectations of the Lebanese people, particularly regarding hopes for a gradual Israeli withdrawal, which they say has not taken place as expected.
