NNA - MP Fouad Makhzoumi criticized today, on Twitter, the Council of Ministers for failing to take any action in its session held yesterday to dismiss Central Bank Governor Riad Salameh, in wake of the two international arrest warrants that were issued against him by both France and Germany.

"Instead, the caretaker government decided to deport the lawyers who worked voluntarily with the Cases Authority to follow up on the issue of funds embezzled by Salameh abroad," Makhzoumi said.

He added: "Perhaps the most dangerous thing in this matter is the threat to Lebanon's ability to follow up on the issue of the money withheld by the Europeans, and the possibility of regaining it, and thus losing Lebanon's right in this regard."
