United Nations Security Council Resolution 1559 - Lebanese Response

Lebanese Response

The Lebanese government officially responded to the resolution on the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF) website in three ways:

  1. The withdrawal of the foreign forces from Lebanon;
  2. Disarming the Lebanese and foreign guerillas; and
  3. Expanding the government's authority on all the Lebanese territories.

Hezbollah and the Loyalty to the Resistance bloc denounced a report on the resolution in 2010 as meddling in Lebanese affairs.

Famous quotes containing the word response:

    “Perhaps nothing in all my business has helped me more than faith in my fellow man. From the very first I felt confident that I could trust the great, friendly public. So I told it quite simply what I thought, what I felt, what I was trying to do. And the response was quick, sure, and immediate.”
    —Alice Foote MacDougall (1867–1945)
