NNA - Member of Parliament Jean Ogassapian said on Monday that the file of the liberated Lebanese from Azaz has been accomplished, but there is another file that needs the government to intervene to finalize it which is that "of the forcibly hidden Lebanese in Syria".
Responding to a question on the possibility of "Future" movement participation in the election of the parliamentary committees tomorrow (Tuesday) and in the parliament's session on Wednesday, the MP said," the "Future" parliamentary bloc would not participate in Wednesday 'legislative' session, but will participate in the committees' election session on Tuesday because it is not legislative."
He explained to "Future" T.V. that the reason behind their rejection to participate in Wednesday's session was still the same, "the insistence of Speaker Berri on a "loose" agenda in light of an outgoing cabinet."
Ogassapian added that they would not attend any session except if there were urgent national issues that demand a parliamentary session to convene.
Commenting on the cabinet formation file, the Deputy said that their stance from that was fixed, pointing out that they had set constants regarding that issue including the refusal of the so called "veto-power" and the circulation of ministerial portfolios.
