Lebanon's relations with Egypt strong: Hariri

BEIRUT - 7 November 2018: Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri stressed in his Twitter account Wednesday that Egyptian-Lebanese relations are very strong and would not be disrupted by any misexpression.

What binds Lebanon with Egypt is more stronger than any words that were wrongly expressed, Hariri said in his Twitter account, he added.

ما يربط #لبنان بمصر أقوى من ان يؤثر عليه سوء تعبير اعتذر عنه وزير السياحة اللبناني. تحية الى #مصر شعبا وقيادة وتاريخا وحاضرا ومستقبلا.
