Prime Minister Najib Miqati will reply in a calm way to all the campaigns that are targeting him, and will prove his cabinet’s determination to improve the living conditions in the country, As Safir newspaper reported on Wednesday.

Miqati’s circles told the newspaper that “citizens will gradually witness the changes in different sectors.”

Concerning the administrative appointments in state institutions, the sources told the daily they will occur according to the mechanism set by ex-Premier Saad Hariri’s cabinet.

They noted that “the campaign launched against the government due to the way it dealt with the Special Tribunal for Lebanon, reached a dead-end. So another campaign began, focusing on the sectarian issue in the appointments.”

However, the sources said that days will prove that all sects will not be deprived from their rights regarding the appointments issue.

The newspaper remarked that the PM is expected to travel abroad with his family on a private visit during the weekend.

Miqati later held talks at the Grand Serail with a delegation from various trade syndicates.

He said: “Improving the economy requires security stability, which we are working on, and political stability, which needs to be achieved.”

“Our government is working on reaching the second goal and we look forward to all sides’ cooperation for this end,” he stressed.

“Lebanon’s trust in its economic system is the key to its development and this trust can only exist through a strong and just state,” the premier noted.
