Beirut-Sana
The Lebanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates expressed regret for the United Nations announcement that Lebanon is among the countries that are not entitled to participate in voting in the General Assembly because it has not paid the contributions due.
The ministry confirmed in a statement today that it “has performed all of its duties and completed all transactions within the legal deadline and conducted reviews more than once with the stakeholders without result.”
The ministry considered that "regardless of who is responsible, Lebanon is affected by its interests and the prestige and reputation of the state" and expressed its hope that the issue be addressed as soon as possible.
