Central Bank Governor Riad Salameh reassured Wednesday that the Central Bank “has the ability to preserve the monetary stability in the country.”

Salameh voiced his remarks during talks with President Michel Aoun at the Baabda Palace.

State-run National News Agency said discussions tackled the financial situations in the country and “the available information about preparations in the U.S. Congress to revise the U.S. financial sanctions act targeting some Lebanese parties, institutions and individuals.”

Aoun instructed the central bank governor to “follow up on this issue,” the agency added.

Central Bank Has Ability to Preserve Monetary Stability. Hezballah Has Ability to Destroy Monetary Stability. Karl Marx said from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs, for this once he was right. Riad Salameh does not need to perform a jihadi duty. Hassan Nasrallah doesn't have the ability to ring the opening bell at the New York stock exchange. Riad Salameh will never need to tell the Lebanese public "لو كنت أعلم" when his actions bring instability, carnage and destruction when the whole country was promised a calm and prosperous summer. Hassan Nasrallah will never have the ability to tell the Lebanese public "كنت أعلم" when his actions bring stability, peace and construction when the world's whole banking system was in turmoil.
