Lebanon’s political stalemate has ended with the election of Army Chief Joseph Aoun as president, after 13 failed attempts and over a year without a leader. Aoun’s election comes during a delicate ceasefire between Hezbollah and Israel, following devastating clashes that left Lebanon reeling. Backed by international powers like the US and Saudi Arabia, Aoun’s presidency is seen as a potential turning point for the country’s fractured politics and strained international relations.Hezbollah’s role in the election has raised questions about its future influence, especially as the group has been weakened by the recent conflict with Israel. Aoun, viewed as a reformist leader, faces monumental challenges, including rebuilding Lebanon’s shattered economy, navigating the fragile peace with Israel, and maintaining national unity amid deep political divisions.
