President of the Republic General Joseph Aoun was briefed by Minister of Interior Ahmad Al-Hajjar on the outcome of his official visit to Kuwait.
Minister Al-Hajjar conveyed to the President the greetings of the Emir of the State of Kuwait and senior Kuwaiti officials, who reaffirmed their support for President Aoun, Lebanon, and the Lebanese people, as well as their commitment to strengthening bilateral relations and further developing the frames of cooperation between the two brotherly countries.
Minister Al-Hajjar also briefed President Aoun on the launch of the biometric fingerprint service at the Lebanese Embassy in Kuwait. The service will be gradually rolled out to Lebanese embassies and consulates around the world, in coordination with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
