The Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement in which it said that it did not demand the omission of a mention to UN Resolutions 1559 and 1680 from the recent resolution under which the UNIFIL mandate has been renewed.
“Lebanon respects and abides by all the UN Security Council’s resolutions, and it has not demanded the deletion of any reference to the aforementioned resolutions,” the Foreign Ministry said in a statement.
Yet the Ministry indicated that the UN resolution renewing the UNIFIL’s mandate did include “wording that does not conform to the framework agreement Lebanon has signed with the UN.”
Meanwhile, the Lebanese foreign ministry issued a statement in which it denounced the Israeli aggression on Damascus and Aleppo airports, voicing solidarity with Syria.
The statement considered that the aggression endangered aviation and the civilians’ safety and violated the international laws.
