The prime minister stated the recent August 4th explosion in Beirut, killing at least 163 people, injuring more than 6,000, and causing a massive public outrage was the product of endemic corruption in the country and reason for the government’s resignation.
Diab stated that corruption was “spread throughout the country’s political and administrative landscape” under the protection of a “class controlling the fate” of Lebanon.
“Today we follow the will of the people in their demand to hold accountable those responsible for the disaster that has been in hiding for seven years, and their desire for real change,” Diab said while announcing the resignation.
Although this move by Prime Minister Diab was in response to the raging anger over the recent explosion, the people of Lebanon still call upon the complete removal of the political establishment in their country as demonstrations broke out for the third day in central Beirut.
The past two days have seen the biggest anti-government protests since October in Lebanon. The protests were over an economic crisis rooted in pervasive graft, mismanagement, and high-level unaccountability in the country.
Diab’s government was recently formed this year in January with the backing of the Iran-backed Hezbollah group.
Lebanon’s President, Michel Aoun, has asked Diab’s government to stay as a caretaker until a new government is formed and ready to take over responsibilities.
The Beirut explosion has received immense international attention. Jean-Yves Le Drian, the French Foreign Minister, called on the Lebanese authorities for a swift formation of a new government, stating that the Lebanese people’s hopes for reform and governance needed to be worked on.
Diab’s government resignation has pushed Lebanon’s politics deeper into turmoil and may further disrupt the already-hindered talks with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) on a financial plan to help the country come out from an economic crisis.
