Amid the internal scene that remains in a state of political stagnation, there are rapid developments in the financial and monetary environment under the new governance of the Central Bank of Lebanon, along with the strict policy adopted by the acting governor, Wassim Mansouri, concerning the preservation of financial stability, preventing its deterioration, not touching the reserves, and the transparency he practices in managing this sector.
"Al-Jumhuriya" has learned that Mansouri will visit the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia tomorrow, Sunday, in response to an invitation conveyed to him by the Saudi ambassador in Lebanon, Walid Bukhari, a few days ago. According to the information, Mansouri will spend several days in the Kingdom, where a wide-ranging program of meetings has been prepared for him with several senior Saudi officials, particularly in the financial sector.
Banking sources informed "Al-Jumhuriya" that Mansouri's visit is of great importance concerning its timing and content, and its implications are certainly positive for Lebanon. It affirms beyond any doubt that Saudi Arabia, contrary to all that is said here and there, has not removed Lebanon from its list of priorities and concerns, and it is directly interested in seeing Lebanon come out of its political crisis and enter into a real solution for its financial and economic crises.
