Will the next Lebanese president be a surprise?

By Sameh Selim, Member of the United States Press agency

Lebanon is a country of surprises and unknown political expectations. Sometimes, the political vision of Lebanon could be clearer in light of the current bad situation, but the situation quickly changes.

Regardless of the outcome of the upcoming US elections and the extent of their impact on the Lebanese people in particular, whether President Trump wins or not, as an opinion writer and political analyst, I propose an idea that came to my mind that will provide political, economic and security stability to Lebanon and the region, which is the idea of ​​​​Mr. Massad Boulos becoming the next president of Lebanon. We are used to previous Lebanese presidents holding more than one nationality, such as the former president of Argentina and the former president of Brazil, who were of Lebanese origin. However, if President Trump wins, I expect him to appoint him as a political and economic advisor to the Middle East and Africa region.

Lebanon is a country and a people open to the world. It has international skills and experiences in various fields, including international organizations, international media, and international economics.

As for military and security stability, it will be achieved for Lebanon at the hands of this man to rebuild the Lebanese army again and rebuild the internal security forces so that Lebanon returns to what it was in the past. I believe with confidence that most of the Lebanese people support me in this opinion based on some dialogues I conducted with some of the symbols of the Lebanese community in the United States so that Lebanon may enjoy stability and security and return to being a cultural and artistic beacon and a tourist destination as it was in the past.
