Former minister Alain Hakim on Wednesday stressed that the electricity plan still violates the law despite being voted unanimously by the Parliament, slamming the populism accusations targeting the Kataeb party over this issue.
“The distortion of the truth doesn’t make something truthful. An aberration can never turn into rightfulness, and evil doesn’t become good just because there is unanimity over it,” Hakim wrote on Twitter.
“The Kataeb party will not remain silent over the law violations whether it's inside or outside the government,” he added.
Hakim was responding to FPM lawmaker Simon Abi Ramia who previously accused the Kataeb's stance regarding the power plan as populist, adding that the project cannot be hindered after being unanimously passed by the Parliament.
