Since the last parliamentary elections in 2018, Lebanon has undergone compounding crises: a revolution, a devastating economic collapse, a mismanaged pandemic, and an explosion that killed hundreds. All fingers point at unrelenting corruption, poor governance and impunity. Lebanon’s physically and emotionally scarred citizens feel governed against their will, held hostage by a system they can no longer condone. The upcoming 2022 election embodies the only faint hope to regain some control over their lives and channel their pain, resentment and anger into representation for a viable path towards real change. An-Nahar has been the voice of the people since 1933 and has had a pivotal role in the key periods of Lebanon’s history. And so, An-Nahar would do everything in its power to prevent the sabotaging of a long-awaited and rightful electoral process.
