Lebanon Lebanon

Israel is trying to normalize Lebanon with Israel through a U.S.-sponsored normalization agreement, the United Nations and the European Union High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) said in a joint statement on Wednesday. It raised questions about how to negotiate with a state that, while not officially recognized, is not considered an enemy.

He did not mention Israel itself, but referred to other parties, according to a transcript published by the Lebanese army.

But the Palestinians took advantage of the government's weakness and established themselves as the dominant force in Lebanon, leading to the formation of a coalition government with the support of Israel and the United States. The 1996 agreement ended and we coordinated security issues in two separate rooms with someone to mediate, "Brig. Gen. Youssef Yassin, a retired Lebanese army general, told Al Jazeera. It all began when an armed Palestinian faction, whose members had previously limited their resources - fundraising and propaganda outside Lebanon to fund donations - launched armed attacks on the border. Israel responded by sending tanks into Lebanese territory and shelling Palestinian positions.

The reason for this is that Christian pilgrims no longer have to pass through Lebanon to visit the Old City of Jerusalem or Bethlehem, Yassin said.

Lebanon also has several prestigious universities, including Beirut University, Lebanon's oldest and most prestigious university. But few admit Syrians, such as Beirut's Al-Azhar University. Lebanese institutions, including the Lebanese National University, the National Institute of Social Sciences and the International Institute of Human Rights in Lebanon.

Hezbollah is headquartered in the southern suburbs of Beirut and has its headquarters in Beirut as well as a number of other locations throughout the country. Between 1985 and 2000, Israel, along with the United States, the European Union, and others, tried to maintain the so-called "safe zone" between Lebanon and its southern border with Syria. Israel's efforts there, however, came to nothing after its army launched two large-scale operations in Lebanon in 1993 and 1996. After mounting domestic pressure, Israel withdrew its troops from Lebanon in 1996, and Lebanon went through a period of relative calm.

Lebanon now says its stance must change as it seeks oil and gas in the hydrocarbon-rich waters of the Eastern Mediterranean. What I am saying from the European side is that we should try to separate the current crisis in Lebanon from this regional context, because this crisis has hit the population very hard and has affected the entire political class in Lebanon. I would like to summarize the list of Lebanese: Europe has more than 1.5 million Lebanese living all over the world, while Brazil is a country with the largest Lebanese community abroad.

Lebanon has a total area of 10,452 km2 and borders the Mediterranean Sea, making it the 178th largest country in the world. The Syrian border is 375 km long, while the Israeli border is 79 km long. Lebanon is also home to most Christians in Europe and the Middle East, and the only country where Christianity is mixed with Islam.

Despite the turbulence of its recent history, Lebanon hosts some of the most vibrant cities in the Middle East, boasting the second largest Christian population in Europe and the third largest Muslim population. Israel has controlled southern Lebanon since 2000, when, under the leadership of Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, after sustained guerrilla attacks by Hezbollah militants, it made a general decision that Hezbollah's activities would be restricted or disbanded without an Israeli presence. In fact, the last suicide bombing in Lebanon occurred in a Hezbollah area, but don't worry, it was one attack a year.

Lebanese President Suleiman Frangieh has tried to use his army to curtail Palestinian military power in Lebanon and to bring about a substantial revision of the Cairo Accord. Israel continues to impose a naval blockade and air blockade over Lebanon to prevent weapons from reaching Hezbollah.

After various political pressures from Lebanon, de Gaulle decided to recognise Lebanon's independence. After independence, Lebanon has made efforts to focus more on the provision of Arabic lessons and teaching of Lebanese culture and history.

Most Lebanese are bilingual and speak both Arabic and French, but English has become popular, especially among university students. Nuffic also found in a 2016 report that 39 percent of Lebanese students attend Lebanese universities. In 1923, the number of Jews in Lebanon was estimated at 3,300, but the last comprehensive census for Lebanon in 2006 recorded a total of 4,000 Jews, of whom 3,060 lived in Beirut. For this reason, Lebanon is one of the most diverse countries in the Middle East in terms of its ethnic and cultural diversity.
