Demerjian: Counting on wisdom of PM-designate to bring in specialists who respect the law

Following his meeting with the Prime Minister-designate Hassan Diab over the new government formation, MP Eddy Demerjian said on Saturday that hopes are pinned on the wisdom of the PM-designate to bring in specialists who set their sights on the law and respect its proper implementation.

"There is no salvation for Lebanon except through implementing and respecting the laws," Demerjian emphasized.

He stressed before the PM-designate that "the social, financial and educational situation cannot bear any waiting period, because the whole economy is threatened."

Demerjian hoped that the new PM would accord immediate attention to the issue of justice implementation, so as to put an end to the selective unjust actions taking place in the country. Additionaly, he urged the PM-designate to rapidly intervene with the banking sector to ensure that the principle of free economy, enshrined in the constitution and laws, is not disrupted and that depositors' rights are well-preserved.
