The Dean of the Faculty of Business Administration and Administrative Sciences at Saint Joseph University, Dr. Fouad Zamakhel, stressed that “when there is a financial crime like the one we are going through, the first beneficiary must be sought, and in this case it is the state that is still being held accountable instead of being tried.”
In an interview with “Voice of All Lebanon” “93.3”, he indicated that “the state had a public debt of $90 billion, but it has shrunk to $10 billion now, and the chain of ranks has reduced its operational cost to less than 95%.”
He said, “There is no one who has not sold his assets to live with the crisis while the state still owns all its assets, institutions and lands, and talking about the customs dollar is to hide the inflation rate.”
