Lebanon: A test case for cohabitation in the Middle East.

Lebanon is a test case for interreligious cohabitation and for the solution to conflicts in the Middle East, Benedict XVI explained in his speech during the presentation of the credentials of the New Ambassador of Lebanon to the Holy See, Georges Chakib El Khoury.

The Pope emphasized that national dialogue must be the adopted method to face difficulties and disagreements, on the condition that individual interests are set aside in favor of a broader view of the common good.

The cooperation of everyone and relationships of trust between people and the different religious communities are essential for the edification of a free society.
