Direct Flights, Unlimited Praise: The Hidden Cost of Trump’s Meeting with Joseph Aoun

Direct Flights, Unlimited Praise: The Hidden Cost of Trump’s Meeting with Joseph Aoun

"transforming his country"

and immediately directed his administration to permit direct U.S. flights to Lebanon.

The sudden diplomatic breakthrough and Trump’s lavish endorsement have raised immediate questions regarding what high-stakes political or strategic concessions Aoun offered behind the scenes to secure such a major policy shift from Washington.
