- A purely personal opinion.  

- I urge MPs of change to vote for  Fouad Makhzoumi as their candidate in the parliamentary consultations that will take place on Monday, even if Ibrahim Mneimneh has announced his candidacy.

Here’s why:

- There is a historic opportunity to implement the inaugural address delivered by the President of the Republic.  

- However, this opportunity will be lost entirely if Najib Mikati manages to secure the largest number of votes during the parliamentary consultations, as this would obligate President Aoun to appoint him.  

- In other words, the ruling system is ready to undermine the reformist and sovereign momentum President Aoun enjoys thanks to his internal and external support.  

- Therefore, the opposition must unite behind a single sovereign and reformist candidate and strive to align with any political group willing to support this candidate.  

- Practically, this candidate will be the one who gains the support of the largest number of opposition MPs, even if he or she is not ideal.  

- This candidate is Fouad Makhzoumi.  

- The MPs of change have a historic responsibility to fulfill the dreams of the Lebanese people and prevent the system from destroying them entirely.  

- Purity may kill the change movement and kill Lebanon.
