From parliament, MP Osama Saad says he is granting confidence to the government
MP Osama Saad said it is difficult for Lebanese people to believe in a presidency and government capable of reclaiming the state's role from a "tight grip."
He stressed that granting confidence to the government should not prevent public accountability if it fails, nor should it exempt parliament from scrutiny if it falls short of its responsibilities.
Saad called on the state to confront Israeli aggression and occupation with its own resources, warning that if it fails to do so, popular resistance will regain its legitimacy.
He accused the United States of expanding its influence and supporting aggression while Israel seeks to present itself as a "dominant power."
He criticized Arab governments for their delayed realization of U.S. President Donald Trump's plan and urged Lebanon to fortify itself through solid national agreements, as the people demand a state that protects them.
Saad noted that, unlike in previous governments, he was granting confidence to this one, hoping it would prove deserving of it.

EU chief backs ICC after US sanctions judges over Netanyahu warrant
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen has reiterated European backing for the International Criminal Court, after the US slapped sanctions on four judges it accuses of 'illegitimate and baseless actions' against Washington and its allies, including Israel. 'The Commission fully supports the [ICC and] its officials. The ICC holds perpetrators of the world's gravest crimes to account [and] gives victims a voice,' the European Commission chief posted on X. 'It must be free to act without pressure. We will always stand for global justice [and] the respect of international law.' On Thursday, the Trump administration followed through on a threat to sanction officials associated with the court, issuing sanctions against four judges. Two of the judges, Reine Alapini-Gansou of Benin and Beti Hohler of Slovenia, were sanctioned for their role in the ICC issuing arrest warrants for Israeli leader Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant in November, according to the US State Department.
