A First-Year Assessment of Lebanon’s Governing Coalition
In January 2025, President Joseph Aoun took the oath of office and in his inaugural address declared the start of a “new era.” The government then began to reconstitute itself as a functioning center of authority after prolonged executive paralysis. This transition unfolded in a moment of political fluidity shaped by two facts: the severe debilitation of Hezbollah following the 2023-2024 war with Israel, and the general consensus that Lebanon must end its endemic patronage, corruption, and institutional dysfunction. The extensive damage and disruption caused by Israel’s military campaign has turned reconstruction into the defining test of whether the state can restore national trust by reasserting its authority and delivering recovery.

President Aoun Signed the 2019 State Budget and Referred It for Publication
President Michel Aoun has signed the 2019 state budget on Wednesday and has referred it for publication in the Official Gazette Thursday, as reported by the National News Agency.
The president put off signing the budget which was passed by the Parliament ten days ago due to the inclusion of Article 80 pertaining to state employment applicants who passed the Civil Service Council exams but were waiting to be hired due to sectarian imbalances.
Aoun also inked the extension law giving the government 6 more months to present the financial accounts of the previous years.
