BEIRUT: United States Ambassador to Lebanon David Hale met Monday with a delegation from the March 14 General Secretariat and reiterated his country’s commitment to partnership with Lebanon.
“US will remain a strong and engaged partner with the Lebanese people and institutions of the state,” Hale said, according to a tweet from the embassy.
Hale also reaffirmed support for the Special Tribunal for Lebanon probing the 2005 assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri.
He confirmed U.S. support for the full implementation of the Taif Accord and UN Security Council Resolutions 1701 and 1559, as well as the Baabda Declaration, an agreement to distance Lebanon from regional crises, especially the war in Syria.
