fossil results in lebanon selection have been announced. the saudi aligned lebanese forces party, a krist, him group has made huge games. several anti establishment candidates also picked up seats and the 1st election since the economic crisis and the bay report explosion. well, here's a closer look at lebanon's, complex political system. it's a power sharing structure based on the 1989 type record which ended the civil war. it's parliament has 128 seats divided between muslims and christians. the president must be a christian, the prime minister sunni muslim. and the speaker has to be a sheer muslim and alliances are often formed to create a parliamentary majority of iranian backed, has bala and its allies dominate the current parliament. i'll just arizona hot report style from beirut. there was disappointment, especially with the voter turnout. people were saying that we're not going to
7:07 pm
witness any change. we need a new leadership that is capable and willing to carry out, performs to fight corruption in order for 11 on the to be able to game at to get to an i am bailout package. this country is dollar hungry, it's these billions of dollars in order for the economy to recover this morning when preliminary results started to come in. there was some enthusiasm that even though this change was not significant, it is the beginning that lebanon is now on the path to recovery. but at the end of the day, this is a parliamentary democracy. but the reality is, it's consensual democracy. if none of the communities work together, if one community feels that they are marginalized, sets out or under attack by the others, then there would be no national unity and there will be no peace. and this country has seen a civil war. it has seen bouts of violence ever since. so if these different political forces don't come together and work together, then we're not going to see political stability. and of course, economic stability. so people are concerned the exchange rate to the dollar
7:08 pm
increase today, it's $20000.00 lire to the dollar. the official rate is $1500.00 to the dollar. there's inflation. this was the middle income countries. now the majority of the population is poor. people want to wait to see if this new parliament is serious about carrying out reforms and fighting corruption. but at the end of the day, that's going to be difficult because if those in power do that, they lose control of state resources and resources that they have been exploiting for decades. shlang because prime minister says that his country has completely run out of fuel. he says, the government needs $75000000.00 in the next few days to pay for essentially imports. let's go live for colombo, i'll 0 smell, finance, and l fernandez. can tell us more in a fuel for, i think we said 24 hours now. how gonna people cope with that? me know, that's what everybody is thinking. it just the prime minister runner,

7:12 pm
generally election when he contested, it was thrown out of parliament. he failed, not just to lead his party to victory, he was unable to even defend. he's on the only reason he's in parliament and was in the running for the premier ship was that he almost had a backdoor entrance in that he's party on the proportional representation system. had one seat allocated to them. know that this is the oldest political party in this country and that kind of shambles, that performance kind of shows everybody that you know, people had, had rejected him and to see that he is the very man that the president has selected to deal with this economic crisis is a bit as pill to swallow. having said that, ronald become a thing of either last year politician. as i said, this is his 6th term in the role of prime minister. he has
