President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi received today Lebanon’s Prime Minister-designate Saad Al-Hariri in the presence of the Egyptian Minister of Foreign Affairs Mr. Sameh Shoukry and the Director of the General Intelligence Service.
President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi affirmed Egypt's keenness to primarily preserve the Lebanese state’s capabilities and to extricate Lebanon from the situation it is currently suffering from. To that end, the Lebanese leaders strive to uphold Lebanon’s national interest, settle disputes, and accelerate efforts to form an independent government capable of dealing with the current challenges, safeguarding the capabilities of the brotherly Lebanese people and ensuring the national unity.
President El-Sisi also renewed Egypt's firm stance towards strengthening close ties of cooperation with Lebanon and expressed his sincere wishes to the Lebanese Prime Minister-designate Al-Hariri in forming the new government in a manner that meets the aspirations of the brotherly Lebanese people in order to achieve security and stability. The President stressed that Egypt is ready to provide all forms of support and assistance to overcome the crises facing Lebanon, especially the repercussions of both the Beirut Port blast and the Covid-19 pandemic.
For his part, Mr. Al-Hariri asserted Lebanon's pride in the close historical relations between the two brotherly countries, relations that are based on solidarity and fraternity. Lebanon’s PM-designate expressed his country's appreciation for the Egyptian efforts in supporting Lebanon in all fields, particularly by providing all forms of aid and assistance to Lebanon in the wake of the devastating effects of the Beirut Port explosion. Mr. Al-Hariri added that Egypt’s role as a fundamental pillar in preserving stability in Lebanon and the Arab region as a whole is also valued by Lebanon, and he praised the current Egyptian experience that is based on prioritizing economic and development success. Mr. Al-Hariri considered Egypt a model to be emulated in the countries of the region.
Mr. Saad Hariri also praised Egypt's tireless and sincere efforts to mobilize international support for Lebanon at various levels in light of the continuing difficult challenges facing the Lebanese people, particularly at the political, economic and humanitarian levels.
The Spokesman stated that during the meeting, the overall Lebanese political scene was presented and the most prominent regional developments as well as ways to enhance the ongoing bilateral cooperation between the two brotherly countries were also discussed.
