François Lecointre, the new chief of Staff of the armed forces, as well as the general Benoît Puga, were in attendance. The heart of this visit of the lebanese president had precisely, for the purpose of investment of his country in the fight against Daesch and the help that we can give him France. “The lebanese army is paying a heavy price” in the war recognizes the president Macron, “and should be more helpful”. To do so, our country intends to share “its know-how in the field of mine clearance and anti-terrorist fight, with the opening in October at the Lebanon school of humanitarian demining, the sending of experts, and by mobilizing its partners around a conference to support the lebanese army, with Italy and the UN”. Emmanuel Macron has also accepted the invitation of his counterpart and will travel to Beirut in the spring of 2018. Other personalities that were part of the guests as Marwan Lahoud, an engineer in the armament French of lebanese origin, Peri Cochin, a producer of television born in Beirut, and Alexandre Bompard, CEO of Carrefour.

 

Two exhibitions, two moods. Jack Lang and his wife Monique have also walked the red carpet in the courtyard of the Elysee.

During this time, Brigitte Macron played the guides in a private tour of the exhibition Christian Dior, a fashion designer’s dream – she has already discovered in July at the museum of decorative Arts -for the first lady lebanese Nadia Aoun and his daughters Chantal and Claudine.

Macron, Aoun discuss terrorism, Syrian crisis

Details

by NAJIA HOUSSARI - Arab News -  BEIRUT: Lebanon’s policy of disassociation from regional conflicts is the best way to maintain the country’s stability and sovereignty, French President Emmanuel Macron said Monday after meeting with his Lebanese counterpart Michel Aoun in Paris.
“In order to solve the problem of displaced people and terrorists, and to be able to provide a dignified future for the people of the region, we need a political solution… to the Syrian crisis,” Macron said.
He expressed hope that “together, in the coming weeks, we’ll be able to redesign a contact group and work together with partners in the region.”
Paris is keen on Lebanon’s unity, integrity and stability, Macron said at a joint press conference.
“Lebanon faces terrorism, as is the case in Europe. I commend the efforts of the Lebanese Army and its courage in fighting terrorism,” he added.
France will strengthen its support for Lebanon in its fight against terrorism, Macron said, adding: “France’s goal is to confront the dangers that undermine peace in Lebanon by strengthening the capabilities of the army so the Lebanese government can take control of the entire territory.”
Lebanon must remain a model of pluralism, tolerance and democracy, he said, promising to work on “organizing a donor conference for investors to help Lebanon and to relaunch the economy.”
Macron added: “We’re working together to develop a road map… aimed at promoting the French language and French culture in Lebanon in education, culture, newspapers, media and art.”
Aoun said he had agreed with Macron to strengthen bilateral relations at various levels, adding: “France supports the Lebanese Army, which has achieved victory over terrorism.”
On the issue of displaced Syrians, Aoun said “We’ve confirmed that those people don’t have refugee status and their presence in Lebanon is facing difficulties, despite our support for them.”
He said the two leaders discussed the Syrian and Palestinian crises. Aoun also hailed France’s role in the UN Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL).

Lebanon still plans tax increases to fund public sector pay rise: senior official

Details

BEIRUT (Reuters) - Lebanon still aims to increase taxes to finance a public sector pay rise, a senior official said on Monday, after the plan was thrown into doubt last week when the constitutional council annulled the new tax law. Many public sector workers went out on strike on Monday after the constitutional council, an arm of the judiciary, decided on Friday to reject the tax law passed by parliament to finance a $917 million public sector pay rise. The official, speaking on condition of anonymity as deliberations were still underway, said the government would adjust its proposed tax hikes as they were the only way for the heavily indebted state to pay for the wage increase.

The proposals included increases in value-added tax, corporate tax, taxes on alcohol and tobacco, lottery prizes and interest on bank deposits, as well as increases in fees and fines. The official said the government would address the points raised by the council. “The direction is to reapprove the same taxes ... after clarifying the points tabled by the constitutional council,” the official told Reuters. Some economists had expressed concern about the tax hikes and the constitutional council said they were unlawful for a number of reasons, including the government’s failure to approve them as part of a state budget.

Prime Minister Saad al-Hariri’s government in March agreed the first state budget in 12 years, but it has yet to be approved by parliament. “Time is running out and we have no alternative to taxes,” the official said. “We cannot finance (the public sector pay rise) without these taxes because this will create a financial imbalance and increase the strain on the economy and increase the public debt, representing a danger to Lebanon’s credit rating.”

Lebanese startup heads to Geneva for a shot at $1 million prize

Details

by daily star.com.lb - Brooke Anderson

BEIRUT: A Lebanese startup that tracks customer shopping behavior through close-circuit television will head to Switzerland to compete for $1 million in investments. It was selected among augmented reality for mobile gaming, personalized travel tips, a food search service, a business payment system, refugee crowdfunding, security and data analysis, a platform for engineers and architects, an app to treat depression, a publishing platform for personalized books, and a childcare network.

These were some of the businesses that were presented at Seedstars World at the co-working space Antwork in Beirut Friday morning. After careful deliberation, it was Vision in Motion, a startup team with an aim to further improve on and solve the problems of tracking customers’ taste that was selected to head to Switzerland. “We liked that they had technology and real intellectual property at their core, There’s value at the IP. The founder is really good at what he does. He knows how to explain and pitch the business. He was the guy behind the tech. The last thing that was key was he had real traction. He’d sign Pepsi Co. regionally. That made him the clear winner,” said Riad Abu Jaoude, executive director at Middle East Venture Partners, a judge for the competition.

For the fourth year in a row, the Geneva-based Seedstars has selected one among 10 Lebanese startups to compete before a 10-member investment team to participate in an 80-person global competition for international entrepreneurs. The winning team will head to Lausanne in April to compete for one week, where the top team will then be awarded $1 million in investments. There are 12 other similar competitions across the MENA region.

Lebanon rejects calls to resettle Syrian refugees

Details

by Arab News - NAJIA HOUSSARI  BEIRUT: Lebanon has rejected suggestions that refugees from the Syrian conflict could be permanently resettled there. The Lebanese constitution said the country was “one for all Lebanese; and there will be no classification of people or land and there will be no settlements,” the parliamentary Speaker Nabih Berri said. “The Parliament has already rejected resettlement calls several times before,” and “amending the constitution is out of question.” Lebanon currently hosts more than 1.5 million displaced Syrians and 450,000 Palestinian refugees, earning the gratitude of US President Donald Trump in his speech to the UN General Assembly in New York on Tuesday.
“We especially thank Jordan, Turkey and Lebanon for their role in hosting refugees from the Syrian conflict,” Trump said. But he continued: “We support recent agreements of the G-20 nations that will seek to host refugees as close to their home countries as possible. This is the safe, responsible and humanitarian approach.” His remarks were viewed as suggesting that Syrian refugees could resettle permanently in Lebanon, but Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri said: “No one is talking about resettlement in Lebanon; we have our constitution and our sovereignty.
“What was said at the United Nations represents a political idea and does not compel anyone to comply. There is no international resolution about this matter and there won’t be any binding resolution that would oblige us to naturalize Syrian refugees or others. There is no need for all this over-emphasis on the subject.”
Former Lebanese President Michel Sleiman called for “a plan to ensure the safe return of displaced Syrians to their country, especially now that the Syrian barrens are safe and calm. “The Lebanese consensus is the strongest weapon for facing any fait accompli. This consensus must be upheld to ensure the safe return of Syrians to their homes.” Lebanon’s Justice Minister Salim Jreissati said: “There will be no resettlement of any displaced person in Lebanon.” He called on “other countries to take the position that is appropriate to their sovereignty.” Samir Al-Jisr, an MP from Al-Mustaqbal bloc, said: “Lebanon is involved in the solution for Syria and any new move will have repercussions on Lebanon; we should keep Lebanon as far as possible out of regional problems.
“There should be new solutions for displaced Syrians without burdening Lebanon on economic, social and political levels. Those who call for the normalization of relations between the Syrian and Lebanese governments in order to find a proper solution for the return of the displaced do not really want them to return to Syria. “We cannot afford to send them to specific areas and exclude other areas due to demographic issues in Syria. The Lebanese government does not prevent anyone from returning to Syria; hundreds have already left Lebanon and returned to Syria.”

Lebanon explores potential roles with Russia

Details

by Marianna Belenkaya - Russian President Vladimir Putin’s calendar has been full lately. On Sept. 13, both Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif visited Putin at his summer residence in Sochi. That’s not surprising, though. Now that the full-scale Syrian peace settlement is underway, we’re seeing a flurry of negotiations. Everyone wants a smooth ride without anyone taking advantage of anyone else. Top-level assurances are necessary. Putin’s meetings came just a day before the latest round of Syrian talks began in Astana, Kazakhstan, where Russian, Turkish, Iranian and Syrian delegations settled the remaining issues concerning de-escalation zones. The agenda included delineating the Idlib zone and finalizing monitoring mechanisms. It will also be important to launch a joint campaign against Jabhat Fatah al-Sham, formerly Jabhat al-Nusra, militants based in Idlib. Should this work out well, the parties can move to the next stage, which is political resolution.

In a surprise move just before the Sept. 14-15 talks, Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu flew to Damascus to meet Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Following hot on the heels of the minister’s trip, Iran’s Zarif arrived in Sochi to compare notes.Zarif’s arrival also coincided with Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's return from a trip to Saudi Arabia, where he reiterated that Moscow doesn’t intend to mediate a boycott of Qatar by Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the UAE and Egypt. At this point, Russia is only interested in keeping a potential confrontation between enemies Saudi Arabia and Iran from harming the peace settlement in Syria. Iran, in its turn, needs to make sure its interests will be respected in Syria and that Russia will not change sides. This is particularly important in light of preparations for Saudi King Salman bin Abdul-Aziz Al Saud’s visit to Russia slated for early October.

One can say the Lebanese prime minister’s arrival in Sochi has emerged as part of such preparatory work. Russia has always given Hariri a red-carpet welcome. This is not conditional upon the importance of Lebanon to Russia. Hariri is the key to Saudi Arabia, and Russia considers Saudi Arabia the key to the Middle East. Hariri is the key to Saudi Arabia, and Russia considers Saudi Arabia the key to the Middle East. “King Salman is certain to visit Moscow, and we firmly believe that his trip will positively impact upon the Arab and Muslim world,” Hariri said when asked about the outcomes of his talks with Putin.
