The National Bloc: Expats won’t be silenced

We stand by the right of Lebanese expatriates to vote in their original electoral districts, as was the case in the 2018 and 2022 elections. This is a constitutional right that must not be reduced or fragmented.

We firmly reject the idea of the so-called “six seats,” which only serves to entrench inequality. Any attempt to limit or contain the diaspora vote within a single district is a step toward emptying it of its meaning and stripping the voter of his legitimacy.

Instead, we call for practical measures: a smoother registration process, guaranteed access to passport renewals without delays, and polling stations abroad that are free of logistical and administrative obstacles.
