President Michel Aoun warned Tuesday over the economic harm caused by labor strikes, as he reassured that the incomes of lower and middle class citizens will not be touched.

Meeting with a delegation from the

General Confederation of Lebanese Workers and other syndicates, Aoun urged them to "evaluate the pressing situation and refrain from subjecting the country to further damage and threats."

He also promised to study the concerns they raised during the meeting, reassuring that he "will not accept any measure that targets the incomes of the poor and middle classes."
