General Security chief Major Gen. Abbas Ibrahim said on Tuesday that he "cannot be certain" that Lebanon will maintain a stable security situation, taking into consideration the inflamed developments in the region, al-Joumhouria daily reported.

“If there hadn’t been constant threats, I wouldn’t have visited Washington where I held several meetings with security officials,” said Ibrahim in an interview with the daily.

He pointed out that he met in Washington with President Barack Obama, CIA Director John Brennan, and senior adviser for the Counter-Islamic State Campaign in Iraq and Syria, Rob Malley.

Ibrahim added that the coordination between the Lebanese and American security apparatuses have become "very advanced, which falls in the interest of Lebanon."

He concluded that the meetings in the U.S. will continue in order to follow up on the results that have been reached so far.

Last week, Ibrahim paid an official visit to the United States where he met senior American security officials.

Details of the visit were not disclosed.
