Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan sent a congratulatory message to Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati on Independence Day.
“I warmly congratulate you and the friendly people of Lebanon on the occasion of Independence Day.
The relations between Armenia and Lebanon are based on centuries-old friendship, mutually beneficial cooperation and mutual respect between the two peoples, which best characterizes the current level of political relations between Armenia and Lebanon.
We are deeply concerned and worried about the deteriorating security situation in the Middle East, particularly in Lebanon, and we consider the targeting of the civilian population and civilian infrastructure unacceptable. The Republic of Armenia supports the territorial integrity, sovereignty and inviolability of the borders of Lebanon, and with its active participation, through the Armenian peacekeeping force, contributes to the strengthening of Lebanon’s security.
