NNA - Caretaker Minister of Culture, Gaby Layoun, said on Monday that the statements voiced about the formation of a neutral government aim at detecting the reactions of the political party that is against this proposal.



"A fait accompli government would drag the country into discord and tension," Layyoun explained.



On the situation in the Bekaa and yesterday's incidents (exchange of hostages and ambush against the convoy of Arsal Municipality head), caretaker Minister said that the latter was wanted by justice and if he [Ali Hojeiri] was in jail, the retaliation would not have happened.
