Aoun Says Forensic Audit 'Game' at Final Stage, Every Culprit Will be Exposed

President Michel Aoun warned Wednesday that every one responsible for the financial disaster will be exposed.

"The game has reached its final stages," Aoun said.

In a meeting with a delegation of the Notary Public Council, Aoun stated that he doesn't accept that depositors bear the brunt of someone else’s mistakes.

"We are working hard to prevent this from happening," he assured.

The president claimed being attacked by sides that don’t want the forensic audit to reach conclusions and to hold the culprits accountable.

Aoun had met Tuesday with archbishop Paul Richard Gallagher, the current Secretary for Relations with States within the Holy See's Secretariat of State.

Gallagher confirmed that Pope Francis intends to visit Lebanon soon, and expressed the pope's worry about the situation in Lebanon.

He quoted the pope as saying that Lebanon should remain a message of peace, forgiveness and diversity and that all sects should place common interest above personal interests.

Gallagher also wished for Justice for all the Lebanese and the families of the victims of the Beirut port blast.
