According to MTV sources, the European Union will contribute an initial $100 million to support the Lebanese army.
The sources added that regional developments may lead some countries, particularly Arab states, to hesitate in increasing their financial contributions to the Lebanese file. However, Lebanese expectations remain focused on achieving positive outcomes from the Cairo meeting.
The sources also noted that there is ministerial reliance in Lebanon on the success of the conference supporting the army as a stepping stone toward holding a conference to support the Lebanese economy.
