Lebanese President Joseph Aoun is expected to visit the White House for a meeting with President Donald Trump by the end of July, according to an unconfirmed report. The visit would be a significant diplomatic milestone if realized.
According to a report, Lebanese President Joseph Aoun is expected to meet US President Donald Trump at the White House by the end of July. The details of the report remain unconfirmed, and no official announcement has been made by either the Lebanese or US governments.
The Zioneer has previously reported on the developing diplomatic relationship between the two leaders. In late June, Trump called Aoun to congratulate him on the framework agreement with Israel and expressed hope to host him at the White House. Prior to that, Aoun denied reports of a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, stating he would not consider such a meeting as long as Israeli attacks on Lebanese civilians continued. Other reports have speculated that both Netanyahu and Aoun might visit the US separately, with some suggesting a potential joint meeting.
If the visit materializes, it would be the first by a Lebanese leader to the White House in over a decade, marking a significant step in US-Lebanon relations amid ongoing regional negotiations.
