Lebanon. Lebanon Leaders Reach Short-term Deal on Fuel Subsidies (VoA)

August 22, 2021

Lebanese leaders agreed to a short-term compromise to maintain fuel subsidies, the presidency and prime minister’s office said Saturday, a move that will trigger more price hikes.

Earlier this month, the central bank said it could no longer support fuel imports at a preferential exchange rate, in what many saw as a de facto end to subsidies.
