Lebanon today »Do you hold 2025 hopes?

Economist Mahmoud Jabai asked the New Testament and the new government to have a serious work in the deposit file, and he says: “We have hope for the new era and how the government behaves in this matter.”

When asked, do deposits return in 2025? Gibai replied, on MTV: “This talk is exaggerated. Rather, we can say that a real money -returning plan can be developed from the year 2025 for a specific period, but the basis lies in how the new government dealt with this file. Will you take the same approach that the old government was, or is there another approach? If it is used as before, the depositors will be exposed to great injustice and we will not reach a solution, because the parliamentary blocs will not agree to the old idea that is absolutely identified against the depositors ’interest, as well as there was no clear vision on how to restructure banks in a fair and fair manner.”
He added: “If this government sets a real vision based on 3 basic points, in my opinion this vision will be the best to solve the deposit crisis quickly.”

He stressed “the need for the state to assume its responsibilities and recognize that it has spent a large part of the depositors’ money,” noting that “the financial gap in the country reaches about 70 billion dollars and criminal audit talks about 42 billion dollars spent by the government from people’s money and between 16 to 17 billion A dollar borrowed by the state from the central bank. So, responsibilities must be re -identified. ”

He continued, “The state must pay the money to the depositors and put it in a box to return the deposits, and then we can talk about a comprehensive solution to the crisis with the Bank of Lebanon depositing its currencies in its foreign and external assets, with the contribution of the banks, and its assets that can be facilitated and collect amounts of them.”

He also stressed that “things start from the Lebanese state and cooperate with it the central bank and banks, then it is possible to talk about an actual response to the money of the depositors. But if we go to the same way that the central bank holds responsibility through circulars, we will not reach a result.
