France imposes restrictions on entry of Lebanese politicians

The Minister of Foreign Affairs, Jean-Yves le Drian, indicated that entry restrictions to certain Lebanese personalities. It would be a question of sanctioning these personalities accused of the political crisis and the lack of formation of a new government. These people would also be accused of embezzlement.

At the same time, discussions are reportedly underway with France’s European partners to extend these sanctions to European level. It would be a matter of making Lebanese officials understand that henceforth the international community will not remain silent in the face of those who « hinder a way out of the crisis ».
