The sources told the daily in remarks published Friday, that Aoun has said he finds it strange that “a senior financial official” — referring to Riad Salameh the Central Bank Governor without naming him — is still in his position despite the collapse.

He even went on to accuse Salameh of “manipulating the LIRA exchange rates.” “Unfortunately, some authorities are still protecting him,” Aoun added.
