Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman has congratulated Lebanon’s Prime Minister Nawaf Salam on the formation of his new government, according to the Saudi Press Agency.
The Crown Prince wished Salam best of luck in his new duties and the Lebanese people further progress and welfare.
The new Lebanese government secured a confidence vote in Parliament on Wednesday with the support of Hezbollah’s bloc.
Crucially, ninety-five out of 128 lawmakers supported the government of Prime Minister Nawaf Salam.
Salam is a prominent jurist who previously headed the International Court of Justice. In January, he was appointed to form a new government after a devastating war between Israel and Hezbollah. This war has killed more than 4,000 people and caused great destruction.
