President Aoun asks for evidence and documents which prompted US Treasury to press charges against MP Bassil

President of the Republic, General Michel Aoun, asked Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates, Charbel Wahba, to make the necessary contacts with the US embassy in Beirut and the Lebanese embassy in Washington, to obtain the evidence and documents which prompted the US Treasury to press charges and impose sanctions against the chairman of the Free Patriotic Movement, former minister, MP Gebran Bassil, asserting that this evidence should be handed over to the Lebanese judiciary in order to take the necessary legal measures.

The President pointed out that he will directly follow up this case, leading to the necessary trials in the event that any data are available on these accusations.
