Saudi efforts to include Hariri in US sanctions
The article discusses Saudi efforts to pressure Saad Hariri, the leader of the Future Movement, by including his name on U.S. sanctions lists under the Magnitsky framework due to financial corruption allegations, in an attempt to sideline him from the Lebanese political scene. This new move is part of longstanding tensions between Riyadh and Hariri, which have worsened following his failure to maintain his political influence, especially with the upcoming parliamentary elections and Hariri’s renewed desire to participate politically. The efforts involve reopening previous financial files and are part of a broader struggle between the Gulf states over Lebanon’s future. Saudi authorities are closely monitoring the Future Movement’s actions and political moves in an effort to reshape the Lebanese landscape and pursue their regional interests.
