Salam arrives in Luxembourg ahead of Macron meeting
Prime Minister Nawaf Salam arrived Tuesday in Luxembourg for a meeting of EU foreign ministers at the European Council building.
Salam will meet later in the day with French President Emmanuel Macron in Paris, as a fragile 10-day truce holds between Israel and Iran-backed Hezbollah.
The visit highlights Macron's commitment to seeing "full and complete respect for the ceasefire in Lebanon" as well as France's support for Lebanon's "territorial integrity", the president's office said on Sunday.
The announcement of the visit came a day after France blamed Iran-backed Hezbollah for the death of a French peacekeeper in Lebanon.
