Aoun Vows to 'Build State', Promises 'Better Future' for Lebanon

President Michel Aoun on Friday reassured that Lebanon's future “will be better than its past.”

“Lebanon's future will be better than its near and distant past, because we will build a state no matter how hard things may be,” Aoun told an expat delegation at the Baabda Palace.

“Very soon we will be able to revitalize the economic and financial situations in order to restore prosperity,” the president said.

“I encourage you to return to Lebanon, because the economy will be revived very soon,” Aoun added, noting that “the tourism sector has seen progress because security is the basis of tourism.”

“The other sectors need some time and we will build them,” the president pledged.
