Foreign Policy
Lebanon's foreign policy is constrained by its internal divisions, particularly between pro-Western factions and the Iran-allied Hezbollah bloc. The country officially pursues a policy of 'dissociation' from regional conflicts, though Hezbollah's involvement in Syria and confrontations with Israel undermine this. Lebanon relies heavily on international donors (France, Gulf states, the U.S.) and UNIFIL's presence along the southern border. The refugee crisis dominates its humanitarian diplomacy.
