Jumblatt did not fail to recognize positive achievements made on the part of the current cabinet, saying that some parties forget that the current cabinet funded the STL twice, and safeguarded agreements with the UN. “If Hezbollah holds evidence on the involvement of Israel in the assassination of PM Hariri, let it present it,” Jumblatt added. On the other hand, Jumblatt called on the Lebanese judiciary to issue indictments in the cases of former minister Michel Samaha and late Brig. Gen. Wissam Hassan’s assassination, stressing that “in case the judge is fearful, let him resign.” Commenting on the issue of exrtra-state arms, Jumblatt pointed that each cabinet agreed on the formula: "the army, people and resistance", stressing that “one day this must change, and President Michel Sleiman was able to draft a basis of a defense strategy that would change this formula”.
