The Media Department of the "Lebanese Forces" responded to what is being circulated in some media outlets, at the instigation of known political forces and currents, regarding the Ministry of Energy and the possibility of Minister Joe Saddi's resignation. In a statement, it pointed out that this distortion comes in the context of an attempt to divert attention from the core issue, which is the Minister's insistence that the government assume its responsibilities regarding the payment of dues owed by official departments and institutions to Electricité du Lebanon, and the adoption of the variable tariff to allow for an increase in supply hours. The "Lebanese Forces" reiterated its support for the reform steps undertaken by the Minister, aimed at putting the electricity sector on the right track, stressing that the government's continued failure to assume its responsibilities cannot be acceptable or sustainable.
