Members of the European Parliament are convening a symposium, on November 14, 2019 from 9:00 am to 11:00 pm at the European Parliament Center in Brussels to discuss the security, political and economic situation in Lebanon. In addition to European parliamentarian from across European countries, Lebanese journalists, media professionals, lawyers and various relevant figures will be attending, too.
The seminar will facilitate discussing practical ideas and reform proposals to address the current situation in Lebanon that meet the Lebanese people's needs and aspirations. Furthermore, it will also delve into the prospect of prosecuting Lebanese politicians who abused their public status for personal gains, have engaged in wasting and looting public funds by depositing them in private overseas bank accounts under their or relatives' personal names.
The participants will be requesting of the European Parliament's member to investigate this matter in order to freeze the illegitimate and suspicious accounts to which deposits were illegally transferred.
This is an initiative led by Mr. Omar Harfoush, a Lebanese businessman, in close coordination with the European Parliament, and following rigorous consultations and researches on ways to freeze public money illegally seized by Lebanese politicians.
In order to achieve the desired goals and to obtain the cooperation of the European Parliament, the present petition needs to be signed by the largest number of Lebanese persons, starting today, leading to the date of the symposium on November 14, 2019.
