Hezbollah won’t attend Cabinet session for naming BDL governor
Hezbollah has told the relevant parties that it is against the appointment of a new central bank governor by the current caretaker Cabinet, media reports said.
Moreover, the party will not attend any Cabinet session aimed at naming a successor to outgoing Central Bank Governor Riad Salameh and it is in favor of the first vice governor assuming Salameh’s missions when the latter’s term expires on July 31, the reports said.
Hezbollah’s reported stance came shortly after Salameh’s four deputies hinted that they would resign if a new governor is not named as soon as possible.
