Hassbani warns against repeating 2019 government approach amid crisis
Former Deputy Prime Minister Ghassan Hasbani warned that failing to address Lebanon's economic and political crises, especially amid international and global pressures, could lead to significant government instability and trigger a social explosion. He emphasized that the government is struggling to implement effective reforms due to the accumulating financial burdens, such as the imposition of a 300,000 Lira fee on fuel, which has caused social issues and worsened the situation. He warned that continuing with the current approach to budgets and taxes will lead to further economic deterioration, and called for enhancing customs operations and controlling financial smuggling. Additionally, he stressed the importance of activating all Lebanese state agencies to confront security and financial challenges, and to leverage international support to achieve sovereignty—including implementing sovereign decisions and combating customs evasion—highlighting the need for governmental coordination during external visits and the role of the Foreign Minister in institutional work.
