President Joseph Aoun wished Pope Leo XIV a speedy recovery following his surgery, expressing hope that he would soon regain his full health.

In a message addressed to the pontiff, Aoun conveyed the sentiments and prayers of the Lebanese people, stressing that the pope’s visit to Lebanon remains firmly rooted in their hearts and national and spiritual consciousness, regardless of their religious affiliations.
