French President Emmanuel Macron is set to host Jordan’s King Abdullah II and Lebanese President Joseph Aoun in Paris on Thursday, ahead of an international summit, aimed at mobilising support for the Lebanese Armed Forces (LAF).
According to an Elysée source, the talks — which are part of the Aqaba Process launched by Jordan in 2015 — will bring together senior officials and military experts from France, Britain, Jordan, Lebanon and the US to discuss plans for deploying the LAF, as well as wider efforts to stabilise the region.
