As usual, the governor of the Banque du Liban imposed pre-censorship on the media, even if the issues were in his hands early on. Whenever Salama goes to a (local) TV interview, it is recorded, not live. If there are viewers on the program, the studio may be empty, or the audience may be forced to remain silent (for example, the MTV episode “The Time Has Come”). Yesterday, Tuesday, and against the rules of the “Scene Dialogue” program on LBKI, the radio station followed the instruction and broadcast a recorded interview with the central governor. The episode, which was promoted by the channel even on the evening newscast, lasted an hour and a half and brought the atmosphere of the action to Lebanese phones, and on the screens at the same time, a State Security patrol entered at Salama’s house. to Rabieh, pursuant to the verdict of Judge Gada Aoun, pursuant to the memorandum issued against him after he twice refused to appear before him in the case of budget manipulation of the Bank of Lebanon. Thus, breaking news services thrown on Lebanese phones between Salameh’s statements and his attempt to rehabilitate himself in his legal and financial case on the lbci screen, between the State Security movement on the front of Salamah’s house and the abduction of the elements later, which made sure the latter was not in his house. An interview held at the Banque du Liban headquarters where the radio station deliberately sent pictures of bank leaders in recent years led by Riad Salameh and Rola Haddad called it “extraordinary” if where he touched the falling lira. , the criminal investigation and case of the ruling court within the country and in Europe. At a time when Salameh was being sued and massive lawsuits against him and his team, he went to Lebanese television to repeat what he had previously said about his palm being “clean” and not guilty of any allegations. against him, they classified as part of the political struggle and tried to weaken him! A context shared by Haddad, who repeatedly repeated the question “Who needs the leader of Riad Salameh and at what cost?”, Focusing on what he calls the “Aunist covenant” that bothers Salameh. In documents presented in the episode, which had previously been circulated in the media, Salama again tried to set aside the allegations against him, lawsuits and lawsuits, which he put on the “political pressure” put on him and his court. in the media ”. He also tried to alleviate the burden of summons to the European Court by emphasizing that he had not yet been summoned for questioning. The appearance of a leader in the form of a man against whom the universe has conspired, and the allegations fabricated against him, and his choice to “take responsibility” and “discharge” the Lebanese from the crisis that this, the “new” began to support Salama by cutting his programming and moving him from the hill to move “state security.” Thus, programming has been delayed more than once to repeat the same message that Salameh has long been away from his home, and what is happening now is subject to “political pressure” being put on him to reach a political settlement. . “. “! In other words, what happened yesterday on television cannot be called anything other than a comedy. The image of the wanted man was polished with one hand, as cameras chased the guards in front of his house to support and spin himself. crimes in a mythical and political dossier!
