Ambassador Fletcher called on Lebanese President Gen. Michel Sleiman and Speaker of Parliament Nabih Berri to set out a new package of practical UK support to Lebanon’s stability. Speaking after his meetings, he said:

“Prime Minister Cameron has instructed us to deliver a five-point stability package, which I discussed with the President and Speaker. Britain will back Lebanon with actions, not just words.
First, the UK will deliver an additional $15 million to equip the Army to protect Lebanon’s borders. Following the meeting between our two Army Commanders on 5 July, we are trebling our funding for the Army’s five-year development plan. The Army needs the support to match its courage.
