Head of the "Change and Reform Bloc" MP Michel Aoun stated that " Lebanon is suffering from many diseases that are very difficult to cure."
During a dinner organized by the doctor's association in the Free Patriotic Movement, Aoun highlighted that "since the year 1993, there is no Lebanese spending budget."
"There are tens of Billions lost," he said.
He further accused the Lebanese President Michel Suleiman, Prime Minister Najib Mikati, and National Struggle Front Leader MP Walid Jumblatt of paralyzing the government's work.
"The three are behaving as though they are preparing themselves for a subversive war in Lebanon," he said.
Aoun listed three of the means that the "three officials use to paralyze the state: they crippled the political decision in the country, and this is one of the objectives of the subversive opposition that is seeking to be armed."
He also said that "they stopped the governmental spending... Moreover, they paralyzed the Lebanese Army."
On the security level, the head of the "Change and Reform" accused foreign countries cooperating with internal sides.
"We don't need to explain who were involved in the conspiracy against the country during 2006 "Israeli" aggression against Lebanon," he confirmed.
Aoun also recalled the failing conspiracies that they had planned against Lebanon during the fighting between the Lebanese Army and Fath al-Islam at Nahr al-Bared refugee camp in north Lebanon in 2007 and the May 7, 2008, incidents in Beirut.
"As their conspiracy reached our neighbors, they returned back to the Lebanese arena from within the government to paralyze the state," he emphasized.
The MP commented on the 2013 parliamentary elections:
Aoun said that "we should be able to secure at least 65 parliamentary seats; otherwise we will lose the polls. Thus, Lebanon will lose."
He confirmed that "the political camp that led Lebanon to its current situation should not be reelected," and noted that "the upcoming elections forms a historic Lebanese cross road."
Aoun reiterated support for an electoral law based on proportionality.
"If we had no choice, we would run in the polls under the present law," he stated.
The leader in the Lebanese majority stressed that "if it was imposed on us and we are not able to pass an electoral law based on proportionality, then we will run in the elections under the present law."
"We have a big chance to win," Aoun predicted.
