Finance Minister commits to stability and timely salaries after Berri meeting
Finance Minister Yassine Jaber, following his meeting with Patriarch Mar Bechara Boutros Al-Rahi, emphasized that the current priority is achieving monetary stability in Lebanon and assured that salaries will be paid on their designated dates. He clarified that the challenge lies in the mechanism for disbursing accrued increases, noting that the government’s plan involves dividing the amounts into installments to ensure the stability of the Lebanese pound, with the possibility of accelerating payments if revenues improve. He also reaffirmed ongoing efforts both internally and externally, including cooperation with Iraq on the oil file and engaging with the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank to rebuild trust in the banking sector.
