May 16 is just a few days away. In just a few days, Central Bank Governor Riad Salameh is scheduled to appear before the French judge Aude Buresi in Paris as part of the investigation into corruption and money laundering charges. Many questions about the great Lebanese theft could be answered that day. Whatever we should expect, the implications are already being felt in Beirut. Mikati has called for the question of the governorship to be settled by the government, and Nabih Berri was quoted as saying that “the imminent juncture is appointing a Central Bank Governor.”
