A Lebanese TV station broadcast controversial statements recorded during a meeting between the Lebanese President, Michel Aoun, and the caretaker Prime Minister (PM) Hassan Diab, according to Sputnik News agency.

The leaked video showed President Aoun while attacking Prime Minister-designate Saad Hariri without naming him.

In the video, Caretaker Prime Minister Hassan Diab asked Aoun about the Cabinet formation process.

“There is no formation, he is lying and making false statements,” Aoun replied.

Hariri commented on these remakes via posting verses from the Bible.

Nearly 4 months after the Lebanese government resigned in the wake of a massive explosion in the Beirut port last August, the leaders of the main parties are still unable to agree on a new government even as the country plunges into a severe financial crisis.
