Lebanon has officially requested Russia’s diplomatic assistance in resolving the conflict in the Middle East, and Moscow is already engaging in “many phone calls” worldwide to facilitate peace efforts. Lebanese Ambassador to Russia, Shawki Bou Nassar, shared this in an interview with TASS.
During meetings, the ambassador urged Russia to intensify its diplomatic efforts, particularly in collaboration with all key players in the Middle East and internationally, including the UN and other global organizations. “Moscow has made it clear that Russian officials are making numerous calls to rally support for a peaceful resolution,” Bou Nassar explained.
The ambassador also reminded that Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov recently met with Lebanese Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib at the United Nations, where they discussed Lebanon’s situation. Lavrov assured that Russia is ready to contribute all necessary efforts to stop the ongoing conflict in the Middle East, particularly in Lebanon.
