Saudi Arabia's top diplomat visited Lebanon for the first time in a decade, signaling a potential thaw in relations between the two countries. Prince Faisal bin Farhan's visit follows a recent ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah, which brought an end to the conflict that had ravaged southern Lebanon.
The visit also comes in the wake of significant political developments in Lebanon, including the election of General Joseph Aoun as president and the appointment of Nawaf Salam as prime minister-elect. These appointments are viewed as setbacks for Hezbollah, a group that Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries have been wary of due to its ties to Iran.
