French foreign minister Jean Yves Le Drian called on Lebanon to form a new government not to face the risk of financial crisis.

They have to form a government shortly, as any delay will bring to further deterioration, he said.

Six weeks after ex-PM Saad Al-Haririr resigned amid mass protest actions, financial crisis risks to disrupt stability in the country.

An international support group for Lebanon comprised of the donors from the Persian Gulf, European countries and the United States, will gather in France on December 11.
