“The election of Michel Aoun as President of the Republic of Lebanon more than two years after the end of term of his predecessor is crucial for the future of the country,” EU High Representative/Vice-President Federica Mogherini said Monday afternoon.
Mogherini noted in a statement that the election of the President ‘opens the way for all political parties to now engage in constructive dialogue and share the responsibility to address the longstanding institutional crisis and the needs of the Lebanese citizens’, adding that the EU will remain fully committed to support Lebanon in all fields, and in particular on the refugee crisis.
