Lebanese authorities must straighten their facts and accelerate reforms if the country is to receive aid on favorable terms from the IMF, the UN's most senior representative in Lebanon Jan Kubis said Wednesday as the government resumed its talks with the IMF.
"Different numbers of losses presented by the government and Banque du Liban, lack of progress on judicial and other appointments or stalled electricity sector reform only weaken Lebanon’s position in talks with the IMF. The country and the people cannot afford that any more," Kubis tweeted.
