Statement by the
Parliamentary Assembly of the Mediterranean
on Lebanon
The Parliamentary Assembly of the Mediterranean (PAM) wishes to express its condemnation of and deep concern on the attacks on the Lebanese Armed Forces in Sidon, which have causes the loss of life within the army ranks.
PAM joins the international community’s plea in support for Lebanon’s sovereignty, security and stability and calls for a general sense of responsibility towards securing mutual respect and coexistence among the Lebanese population.
The national unity of Lebanon is extremely sensitive in this particular moment with the crisis in Syria, and all parties are invited to resist the spill-over of the conflict, in order to avoid the escalation of instability in the region.
