The French daily “Le Figaro” reported that French President Emmanuel Macron hinted, in his previous visit to Beirut, “to impose sanctions on political leaders who reject the reforms and to establish a new political contract as he wishes.” According to the newspaper, Macron added: “There is serious consideration of these sanctions, but they are supposed to be coordinated with the Americans to be effective.” The newspaper asked if this sword would motivate the godfathers of the exhausted and corrupt regime to act. And he spoke, according to what is happening in the corridors of the Elysee, of words about “a clean, efficient government capable of implementing reforms, especially in the electricity and telecommunications sectors, which he described as a financial bomb to finance some parties “. Paris also insists on the criminal investigation of the Banque du Liban, considered a “black box for corruption”, and the relaunch of negotiations with the IMF. Contrary to what is being circulated, it is not Macron who referred to the newspaper by drawing up a list of names implicated in corruption and for whom sanctions are supposed to be imposed, there are three: Nabih Berri, Saad Hariri and Gebran Bassil, but one of the economists. One of those involved in the file told “Le Figaro” that the first list should include names of different parties and sects to gain credibility, which was considered very easy by the economist who follows Lebanese affairs: “We must tell Basil , Berri and Hariri that if they insist on not working then they won’t work. They can move in any country of the Economic Cooperation Organization, and that all their properties abroad will be frozen, then they will move as a result of damaging their pockets. It considers that “sanctions should not be imposed on Michel Aoun personally, but on his“ entourage ”, his two daughters Mireille and Claudine, and Basil and his adviser, Salim Jreissati, and in particular Siddar Bank, the private bank of the Free Patriotic Movement. All the accounts of the Aoun family are deposited there. “It is striking here that the former director general of the Ministry of Finance, Alan Biffany, told the newspaper that” the use of the sanctions weapon made many people tremble, and there is a kind of commotion among politicians. “And if Macron will be able to commercialize his ideas and” reforms to the Lebanese dinosaurs “, Biffany replied:” The Lebanese parties have always prevented it. But with threats of hitting them on the fingers, this time I may be successful. ‘
