French presidential envoy and former foreign minister Jean-Yves Le Drian is expected in Beirut within days. He has been tasked by President Emmanuel Macron with following up on Lebanon’s political and economic developments. His mission will center on preparing two international conferences: one aimed at supporting Lebanon’s reconstruction, and another dedicated to strengthening the Lebanese Army.

The announcement came on Monday, during a meeting between President Joseph Aoun and French Ambassador Herve Magro, in which they discussed the overall situation in the country.
