National Moderation bloc says won't vote for Azour or Franjieh
2023-06-13
[An Nahar] MP Walid al-Baarini of the largely-Sunni National Moderation bloc has said that the grouping of politicians will attend Wednesday’s presidential election session without voting for Suleiman Franjieh or Jihad Azour.

"Amid the current alignments, the bloc will only take part in the elections through a consensual candidate on whom most parliamentary blocs would agree," Baarini told the al-Anbaa news portal of the Progressive Socialist Party.

"The election of a president amid this rift and sharp divisions will not lead the country to the shore of safety," the MP warned.
