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:

    Play for young children is not recreation activity,... It is not leisure-time activity nor escape activity.... Play is thinking time for young children. It is language time. Problem-solving time. It is memory time, planning time, investigating time. It is organization-of-ideas time, when the young child uses his mind and body and his social skills and all his powers in response to the stimuli he has met.
    James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)
