Angela Diffley is pleased to welcome Bilal Y. Saab, Senior Managing Director of TRENDS Research and Advisory. According to Saab, Lebanon is at a crossroads: the government is committed to reform, is fundamentally “pro-Lebanese” and rejects interference from external actors. The central challenge remains Hezbollah, an entrenched, hybrid actor operating across political, military, and economic domains. Rather than advocating for abrupt or violent confrontation, he emphasises a peaceful gradualist strategy, paired with nation-building efforts and sustained international support.
