The Gap Law: Lebanon’s Exit Strategy or Its Final Foreclosure?
Today, the Proposed Gap Law sits before Parliament. It is the only legislative vehicle available to end the vacuum that is currently our greatest enemy.

“Central Bank Gov. Riad Salameh informed caretaker Prime Minister Hassan Diab that he can longer continue to support the subsidy program because BDL has only $1.5 billion left for this program and urged the Cabinet to come up with a plan to lift the subsidy and replace it with a prepaid card for needy families in Lebanon,” Wazni explained.
