Lebanese News and Updates
The Ukrainian ambassador to Lebanon met Lebanese president Aoun and informed him that the Russian-operated ship that arrived in Tripoli, Lebanon is carrying stolen Ukrainian wheat.
🌾 Ukraine claimed the ship has travelled from Crimea with 5,000 tons of barley and 5,000 tons of flour “that we suspect was taken from Ukrainian stores”.

A customs field agent who boarded the vessel in Tripoli told The Cradle there was no barley among the cargo, “only flour”. The cargo is reportedly bound for Syria.

A senior customs official tells off the record: “The prime minister contacted the customs leadership and demanded we hold the ship for investigation, while the office of the president of the republic asked us to let the ship depart to its destination to avoid trouble with the Syrians and the Russians”. “This is a complete conflict in decision making, we don’t know how to act right now”, even though “by law [Ukraine] is not allowed to make this request of us. They must bring us evidence first, and if it is compelling, only then can we undertake an investigation.” (The Cradle)

Prime Minister Mikati and President Aoun disagree on the matter.
