Lebanon's Aoun: protests show people's pain, corruption charges not fair

 BEIRUT - Lebanon's President Michel Aoun said on Monday that protests gripping the country showed "people's pain" but that accusing all politicians of corruption equally was not fair.
Aoun added that the government must at least start by lifting banking secrecy from current and future ministers, his office said in a tweet.
"What is happening in the streets expresses people's pain, but generalizing corruption (charges) against everyone carries big injustice," he said during a cabinet session.
