Lebanon’s Failure To Support Saudi Arabia In Struggle With Iran Sparks Crisis Between Lebanon And Saudi-Led Gulf | MEMRI
Introduction
In recent weeks, a deep crisis has developed in Lebanese-Saudi relations, to the extent that Saudi Arabia took punitive measures against Lebanon: halting a $4 billion aid package to the Lebanese security forces;[1] issuing a travel warning for this country, and taking a decision to expel Lebanese nationals from Saudi Arabia. In addition, on March 2, 2016 the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the council of Arab interior ministers both issued resolutions, initiated by Saudi Arabia, to designate Hizbullah a terrorist organization.[2]
