I am confident that under your leadership, in this challenging period Lebanon will rediscover the path to stability, peace and prosperity. Armenia and Lebanon have rich traditions of friendship, based on close historical and cultural ties and mutual respect between the two peoples. I reaffirm Armenia’s support for Lebanon’s territorial integrity, sovereignty and inviolability of its borders. I assure you that Armenia will continue its support for international efforts aimed at establishing peace in Lebanon, in particular through the active participation of the Armenian peacekeeping contingent within the framework of UNIFIL.
I am confident that with joint efforts we can further deepen and develop mutually beneficial cooperation on both bilateral and multilateral platforms for the benefit of our countries and the two friendly peoples.
Taking this opportunity, I wish you good health and success in your responsible mission, and lasting peace and progress to the brotherly people of Lebanon."
