Aoun after Cabinet meet: 'We got what we wanted'
BEIRUT: Free Patriotic Movement chief Michel Aoun declared that his party came out victorious from Thursday's Cabinet session, saying the body would no longer pass any bill without his ministers’ approval.
“We achieved what we wanted from the Cabinet session today,” Aoun said in a news conference after the end of a turbulent Cabinet session that was accompanied by violent scuffles between his party’s supporters and the Army outside the Grand Serail.
"No decision will be made [in the Cabinet] without our approval."
He said the decree passed by Cabinet concerning contracts with hospitals was approved by his ministers.
