As each ambassador arrived at the palace, they were received with full official honors, including the playing of their respective national anthems by the army band and the hoisting of their country’s flag alongside the Lebanese flag.
After saluting the flags, each envoy reviewed a detachment of the Republican Guard and proceeded through a ceremonial guard of honor to the Ambassadors’ Salon, where they presented their letters of credence to the President and introduced members of their diplomatic missions.
Upon departure, the Lebanese national anthem was played for each ambassador.
