UAE Ambassador: Abu Dhabi Supports Lebanon’s Stability, Sovereignty

Lebanese President Michel Aoun meets with UAE Ambassador Hamad Al-Shamsi at the Baabda Palace (NNA)

United Arab Emirates Ambassador to Lebanon Hamad Al-Shamsi underlined his country’s continued support for the stability, sovereignty and development of Lebanon, and its willingness to promote cooperation between the two sides.

The envoy visited President Michel Aoun at the Baabda Palace on Tuesday and discussed Lebanese-Emirati relations and the means to develop and activate cooperation in all fields.

“The UAE has always supported the Lebanese leadership and people and continues to support its stability, sovereignty and progress. It also looks forward to further boost cooperation in all fields,” he said after the meeting.

“Lebanon has made many achievements over the past few months, most importantly strengthening its safety and that of its citizens,” the UAE diplomat added, reiterating his country’s keenness on seeing Lebanon a sovereign, independent and happy nation.

“The president has extended his greetings to the UAE leadership. He recalled the good deeds of late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the founder of the UAE and the leader of its unity, and whose support to Lebanon had been accompanied by positive repercussions that continue to shape the foundations of relations between the two brotherly countries,” Al-Shamsi added.
