Question: What are the Armenian foreign ministry’s key approaches to the ongoing events in Lebanon?

Answer: Lebanon is a friendly country with which Armenia has warm and multi-layered ties, and we are full of hope that the best ways and solutions will be found in these domestic political processes for the benefit of the further stability and prosperity of Lebanon and its people.

The Armenian Embassy in Lebanon operates on a heightened mode amid the developments in Lebanon and is one of those embassies, the consulate section of which continued the receptions during this entire period and provided its daily services to the Armenian citizens.

As you know, our embassy issued a statement calling on the Armenian citizens who made a temporary visit to Lebanon to avoid visiting public places.

As for the Armenian community of Lebanon, it is represented in the country’s state structures by the constitution and deals with the ongoing domestic political processes as a normal participant and role-player in the country’s political life.

The Armenian Embassy in Beirut is in touch with both the leaders of community structures and the respective representatives of the Lebanese leadership.
