Lebanese FM criticizes Saudi Arabia’s unjustified stand towards Lebanon

Beirut, (ST) – The Lebanese Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Abdullah Bou Habib criticized the Saudi regime’s tough stance towards Lebanon regarding the recent crisis. He stressed that problems between countries can be solved through dialogue.

 “We do not understand Saudi Arabia’s tough stand toward Lebanon. Problems between countries are resolved through dialogue not through severing relations,” Bou Habib said in a television interview on Sunday.

 He stressed that the Lebanese government “is here to stay, and there are local and international promises to support it.

Bou Habib said:”We do not accept solving any crisis at the expense of Saudi Arabia or at the expense of Lebanon and we support any dialogue between the two sides bilaterally or through the Arab League.”

Last Friday, the Saudi regime decided to recall its ambassador in Lebanon for consultations and asked the Lebanese ambassador in Riyadh to leave within 48 hours.

The Saudi regime protested against old statements made by the Lebanese Minister of Information George Qardahi before being assigned as a minister in which he demanded the stopping of the war waged by Saudi Arabia on Yemen.
