We were also able to implement several plans over the years, including the housing plan, which secured 175,000 homes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We were able to secure subsidized advances for the productive sectors, industrial, agricultural and tourism, and the tourism projects that exist to this day have benefited from loans and support secured by the Central Bank.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When the crisis occurred in 2019, the price of the dollar did not rise much, and the Lebanese could withdraw their dollars from the banks, until the Lebanese government decided to stop paying bonds, and here inflation began, and the dollar began to rise.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Salameh believe that the wrong decisions taken by the Lebanese state led to negative consequences for the economy, as well as to the financial crisis, and those who took these wrong decisions are the same ones who today blame the bank and its governor for the crisis.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Beirut, (Business News Report)|| The Lebanese Council of Ministers is scheduled to discuss the issuance of larger denominations of the Lebanese lira, to facilitate the use of the local currency, which is suffering from a collapse in value.
