Upon receiving Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Secretary-General Jasem Albudaiwi and Kuwait’s Foreign Minister Abdullah Ali Al-Yahya at the Baabda Palace in this capital, Aoun expressed optimism to help the Lebanese citizens who hope to return to their villages.
The head of State emphasized the cooperative relations with the Gulf countries, in line with the general lines he mentioned in his swearing-in speech on January 9.
In this regard, he indicated that after the formation of the new government, Lebanon will cooperate with the Gulf nations to build the State.
