Following his meeting with Hariri, Finance Minister Ali Hassan Khalil announced that there will be no new taxes on Lebanese citizens in the 2020 state budget, and banks will help with solving the current crisis.
Moreover, President Michel Aoun promised that the government will find a reassuring solution to the crisis.
However, officials' various announcements did not succeed in defusing people's anger who pledged to stay in the streets until they see a complete change in the country.
The three days of protests ruined the capital's downtown streets after a night of clashes between riot police and demonstrators.

Foreign embassies in Lebanon have, as a result, called upon their citizens to remain safe while some countries issued travel warnings against Lebanon.
For its part, Saudi Arabia has evacuated 260 Saudi citizens from Lebanon.
