The Presidency Information Office issued a statement on Sunday, in which it categorically denied recently circulated news by the media about President Michel Aoun's intention to sign a decree accepting the government's resignation.

The statement asserted that such news were completely false, saying that it falls within the framework of deliberate confusion and systematic abuse of the position of the presidency and the person of the president.

"The Presidency Information Office renews its call on the media to resort to it in regards to any news related to the stances of the President of the Republic, so as not to fall victim to lies and deceptions that abound in such political seasons that the country is currently going through," the statement concluded.
