The Lebanese ministry stated in a statement: “This morning, at the headquarters of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Emigrants, an agreement was signed between Lebanon and Russia to exempt holders of diplomatic, service, and special passports from entry visas.” This agreement is based on mutual cooperation and political respect, as Russia and Lebanon have maintained stable diplomatic channels for decades.
Moscow is keen on supporting Lebanon’s stability and unity, especially amid the political and economic challenges it faces, and on the importance of political and diplomatic solutions in dealing with international crises.
In return, Lebanon views Russia as a significant player in the region and supports efforts toward stability.
