Speaking in a televised interview with WTV channel and Tabadul Platform late on Tuesday, the Head of the economic committee in the House of Representatives (HOR), Mohamed Raied, considered that the briefing of Al-Siddiq Al-Kabir at the Tripoli-based House of Representatives did not bring to light new information as it included the same things mentioned previously in the Bank officials’ statements.
” It was expected that Al-Kabir would reveal new information or offer solutions to the current crisis that the banks and the banking sector in Libya are going through.”
Mohamed Raied explained that the questions addressed to the governor during the session focused on the need to unify the exchange rate, eliminate the parallel market and provide financial liquidity.
Meanwhile, Raied said he was happy about the arrival of Al-Kabir in order to provide a briefing at the Tripoli-based House of Representatives and appreciated this positive step, while aspiring to bring all the sides to the same table.
“During my intervention, I urged the need to move away not only from “putting a spoke in the wheel”, but also from the squabble and stubbornness policy… I also highlighted the need to focus on national’s interest and their problems.” He said.
The head of the economic committee stressed that the briefing should have focused on the Bank’s work and solving its problems.
” Unfortunately, most of them were talking about financial aspects… Better solutions were expected.’ He added.
