Lebanese Christian leader congratulates Trump

Samir Geagea, leader of the powerful Christian Lebanese party Lebanese Forces, congratulated Donald Trump today (Wednesday) for winning reelection.

Geagea, who has condemned Hezbollah for starting a war with the IDF while standing on the side of Lebanon in the fight, said that "I congratulate President Donald Trump for his victory in the elections. I believe American support for Lebanon, its legal institutions, its sovereignty, and its independence, will continue."

In a recorded speech broadcast earlier today, Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem said that it does not matter who won the election - Trump or Harris - and he expressed zero confidence in the United States' ability to bring about a negotiated ceasefire in the war between the terrorist organization and the IDF.
