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:

    ... the most extreme conditions require the most extreme response, and for some individuals, the call to that response is vitality itself.... The integrity and self-esteem gained from winning the battle against extremity are the richest treasures in my life.
    Diana Nyad (b. 1949)
