“We hope that next year’s Budget would include further reforms and austerity measures,” he said following his meeting with Hariri.

Sfeir said that he tackled with Hariri need to develop “an economic vision that attracts investments and capable of creating job opportunities.

“This requires alleviating the burden on the private sector to stimulate it,” he added.
