Saudi Ambassador to Lebanon Launches Resumption of Lebanese Exports to Saudi Markets

Saudi Ambassador to Lebanon Fahd Al-Dosari inaugurated the resumption of Lebanese exports to Saudi markets during a ceremony held at the Port of Beirut.
 The event was attended by Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam, the ministers of finance, industry, agriculture, economy and trade, heads of relevant government agencies, as well as a number of political, economic, and media figures and members of the Saudi Embassy.
 In his remarks, Ambassador Al-Dosari stated: “In implementation of the directives of His Royal Highness Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister, and in response to the request of Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and Prime Minister Nawaf Salam, the Kingdom has resumed Lebanese exports, following the positive steps taken by the Lebanese government toward rebuilding state institutions and the efforts undertaken by the competent authorities.”
 He noted that the first shipment of Lebanese exports from the Port of Beirut was departed today to Jeddah Islamic Port. He emphasized that the decision reflects the fraternal ties between the two countries and Saudi Arabia’s commitment to supporting Lebanon’s stability, sovereignty, and the well-being of its people.
 The Lebanese prime minister reaffirmed Lebanon’s commitment to preventing any harm to Arab countries from originating from its territory, expressing appreciation to HRH the Crown Prince for the decision to lift the ban on Lebanese exports.
 Following the ceremony, attendees inspected newly installed advanced cargo-scanning systems at the port, designed to enhance security oversight and expedite customs clearance procedures.
