The General Command of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) on Wednesday welcomed at its headquarters in Naqoura a delegation representing the Council of the Lebanese Editors’ Syndicate headed by Captain Joseph Al-Kosseifi.
The long day visit included a meeting with Head of UNIFIL Mission and Force Commander, Major General Aroldo Lazaro, UNIFIL Deputy Head of Mission Jacques Christofides, and the mission’s spokesperson, Andrea Tenenti.
The visit included a tour along the Blue Line and detailed explanations of UNIFIL’s mission in Lebanon.
Most importantly, Lazaro affirmed to his visiting delegation that UNIFIL “has nothing to do with maritime demarcation.”
For his part, Kosseifi deemed UNIFIL “part and parcel” of the Lebanese fabric.
