Aoun will also meet with the Lebanese Diaspora in Kuwait. During an interview with Kuwait’s national news agency (KUNA) on the eve of the visit, Aoun underlined Lebanon’s keenness to establish strong relations based openness and cooperation. “The message I carry with me to Kuwait is not different from the one I conveyed throughout the visits I had made since my election as president of the republic,” he said, stressing that his message embraced a “genuine Lebanese wish to be open and to cooperate with everybody, within the standards that preserve each countrys rights, independence, and sovereignty.” “My message is based on mutual love and respect, and reflects the particularities of Lebanon… What I carry with me is the image of the strong Lebanon and the determination of the Lebanese that stood in the face of attempts targeting the country’s stability, security, and unity,” the Lebanese president said. Aoun went on say: “Lebanon and Kuwait are invited to work to prevent the exploitation of any inter-Arab dispute to end the Palestinian conflict.” As for the assurances provided by Lebanon for the return of Kuwaiti and Gulf tourists to Lebanon, the president said: “The security of tourists is that of Lebanon. There is no need for concern, because the security situation is maintained, and our Arab brothers will find that Lebanon’s nature and lifestyle are still the same.” “Stability is a red line that cannot be crossed, thanks to the determination of the Lebanese people, army and security forces,” he added.
