Armenia–Lebanon relations
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Armenian-Lebanese relations refer to foreign relations between Armenia and Lebanon. Lebanon is host to the eighth largest Armenian population in the world and is the only member of the Arab League that recognizes the Armenian Genocide. During the 2006 Lebanon War, Armenia announced that it would send humanitarian aid to Lebanon. According to the Armenian government, an unspecified amount of medicines, tents and fire-fighting equipment was allocated to Lebanese authorities on July 27, 2006.[1][2]
[edit] Recognition of Armenian genocide
On May 11, 2000, the Lebanese parliament voted to recognize the Armenian genocide.[3] Lebanon is the only Arab country and one of the few countries of the world to have done so.[citation needed]
