Carpet: No food or fuel shortage with 4 ships arriving

Lebanese Minister of Economy, Amir Bessat, confirmed that Lebanon has sufficient stockpiles of food, medicines, and wheat, covering more than three months. Despite delays in fuel shipments, which currently suffice for less than two weeks due to delayed ships, an arrival of four fuel tankers is expected within the current week. He explained that the ministry, in cooperation with the Ministry of Energy, is seeking to delay price increases on imported goods based on last year's prices, even though these prices might rise by more than 15% if global prices do not decrease. He also emphasized that food safety is a priority; the ministry annually destroys dozens of expired or non-compliant items and conducts extensive field inspections. Furthermore, he pointed out the potential for economic gains through cooperation with Syria and Iraq via the oil pipeline connecting Tripoli and Baniyas, noting an upcoming visit to Iraq to strengthen commercial relations, especially since Iraq exports more than it imports to Lebanon.
