Lebanon’s leaders must unite and do their utmost for the timely formation of a Government that must be able to meet the legitimate needs and demands of the Lebanese people and will be committed to address Lebanon’s acute and multiple challenges – notably its humanitarian, socioeconomic and financial crises, the coronavirus pandemic and the reconstruction of Beirut.
