2022 Lebanese Parliamentary Elections

In Lebanon, the local currency has lost about 90% of its value, aggravating the socio-economic situation of the majority of the Lebanese population and sending the prices of the most basic necessities and commodities through the roof. After more than two long years of an unprecedented economic crisis, Lebanon is holding its parliamentary elections on May 15. Will the results bring about change or provide solutions to the multiple crises in the country?
