‘Today’s sanctions send a clear message that Canada will not tolerate the acts of significant corruption that have contributed to Lebanon’s economic collapse,’ Joly says
Canada is joining peers in leveraging sanctions on a trio of people tied to an alleged embezzlement scandal at Lebanon’s central bank.
The three stand accused of involvement in allegedly siphoning commissions from the central bank when it bought bonds, without providing any services of value. “These individuals are being listed for their involvement in acts of significant corruption, including the misappropriation of public assets for personal gain and the transfer of the proceeds of corruption to foreign states,” the news release said.
