We discuss his earlier career as an MP affiliated with the Free Patriotic movement, his resignation from the bloc and later from parliament following the Beirut port blast, and his belief in the potential for reform through upcoming parliamentary elections.

Our conversation includes his current candidacy, what he deems an 'anti-system' movement, as well as memories of my father days before his assassination.

Neemat Frem is a resigned member of parliament and a candidate in upcoming elections.
