Lebanon Regained Independence in 2005
Free Patriotic Movement leader Michel Aoun said Lebanon regained independence in 2005.
"Preserving independence is more difficult than obtaining it," Aoun said in remarks published Sunday by the daily An-Nahar. "This is why the Lebanese lost their independence for a long time."
"Independence is a decision-making at a government level with absolute freedom without harming international laws or vital global," Aoun believed.
