Issa say Aoun won't return 'empty-handed' from US
President Joseph Aoun’s meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Sunday was “successful and positive” and the two men discussed “all files,” U.S. Ambassador to Lebanon Michel Issa said.
The Lebanese president “will not return empty-handed from Washington,” Issa added, ahead of Aoun’s meeting with his U.S. counterpart Donald Trump on Tuesday.
Asked about a possible Syrian intervention against Hezbollah in Lebanon, Issa said: “We’re certain that such an involvement would be meaningless and Rubio does not support it.”
