Macron: 'Paris is today the place where our partners gather to strengthen Lebanon's sovereignty and enable it to fully ensure its security.A Lebanon at peace is a hope reborn for the entire Middle East. A sovereign and stable Lebanon is a decisive step toward peace and stability for the entire region.With the Lebanese President and the King of Jordan, and in close coordination with the United States, Saudi Arabia, and our international partners, we support the Lebanese Armed Forces, which are indispensable for asserting the authority of the Lebanese State across its entire territory.In the face of persistent tensions in the Middle East, only diplomacy and dialogue can put an end to an escalation with no way out.'
