In light of the non-resolution – the decision taken by the Constitutional Council, it can be considered that the Army Commander, General Joseph Aoun, has become a natural candidate in the marathon presidential race, although some have interpreted some media campaigns, especially by media professionals close to “Haret Hreik” against the decision to confirm the extension. By suggesting that matters between the leadership of Yarzeh and Hezbollah are not going well, or that they are going through a period of coolness against the backdrop of what is leaked from time to time about disagreements that began to emerge in public after the session to postpone the demobilization for a year for the security leaders, and the unjust positions that followed it. It can only be included in the category of the presidential battle, which the “Five-Party Committee” is trying to make an absolute priority that must take precedence over other priorities, even if some doubt the ability of this committee to convince both sides of the presidential and non-presidential conflict on the Lebanese scene to go towards the “option.” Third, that is, for the “Shiite duo” to abandon the nomination of the head of the “Marada Movement,” former Minister Suleiman Franjieh, in exchange for the “opposition” to withdraw from the nomination of former Minister Jihad Azour.

This deliberate leak indicates, as some have interpreted it, that Hezbollah is not ready to give up on the “candidate” who is guaranteed to protect the back and sides of the resistance, and who believes, according to what is suggested, that he is able to gain more through politics in exchange for his conditional acceptance of what is said about him. A deal that may have regional backgrounds, from which Tehran does not seem far removed. However, the insistence of Haret Hreik, through more than one of its leaders or officials, to deny what is being spread in some circles close to the decision-making capitals that are very interested in separating the Lebanese situation, especially at the level of the presidential election and other imminent issues, from what is happening in Gaza, indicates that Hezbollah will not enter into any negotiations at a time when the sanctity of the Gaza Strip is being violated and the blood of thousands of innocent people is being shed.
This means, from the perspective of those carrying messages to the southern suburbs, the most recent of whom are German envoys, that the time has not yet come for solutions at all levels, and that matters are left to their time, until the dust of the battle in Gaza clears, and the results of the ongoing negotiations with the Hamas leadership, which demands… A long truce may be followed by indirect negotiations with the Israelis to reach a political solution that may be similar to the “two-state solution.” If an agreement is reached on a long truce in Gaza, the southern front linked to Gazan developments will inevitably calm down, which will open the way for Hezbollah to enter into negotiations that may lead to a political deal that can be translated into reality, in line with what the next stage requires. Of mutual concessions, especially if expectations are true that the American envoy Amos Hochstein is carrying with him this time new ideas regarding fixing the demarcation of the land borders between Lebanon and Israel, including the Shebaa Farms and Kfar Shuba.
Hezbollah, which considers itself the strongest in the political and military equations, will not offer free concessions, but rather seeks to improve its negotiating conditions in light of the impact of its accurate, long-range and at the same time destructive missiles, such as the “Burkan” missile or the “Flaiq 1” missile, and other missiles. Able to reach beyond Haifa. Whoever does not lose in the field will not give up in politics. Rather, the opposite is true, according to what is reported by those close to the “resistance” axis.
Therefore, the opportunity to elect a new president of the republic may be available today, according to the growing movement of the “Five-Year Committee.” If this president is not elected as a “third option” today, Lebanon will remain without a president until further notice.
