Jaber and French envoy discuss military support
The meeting between Lebanese Finance Minister Youssef Jaber and French Ambassador Patrick Durel focused on France's support for Lebanon, especially in the areas of the military and financial reform. Emphasis was placed on the importance of gradually withdrawing UNIFIL forces to prevent a vacuum in the south, with the Lebanese Army being strengthened to fill this gap. The discussion also addressed the global energy crisis and its impact on Lebanon, highlighting the necessity of reforming the energy sector to make it more financially and economically sustainable. Regarding the economy, Jaber outlined the government’s efforts to advance reforms and reach an agreement with the International Monetary Fund, reaffirming the importance of continued French support, particularly through a 75 million euro contribution from the World Bank to aid reconstruction, to stabilize Lebanon and restore its capacity to recover.
