For Lebanon to recover, “Hezbollah must accept its defeat”

Lebanese French-speaking daily newspaper born in 1971 from a merger between The Orient et The Day, it is one of the most widely read foreign language newspapers in the country and within the Lebanese diaspora, particularly French-speaking. Sovereignist and defender of freedoms, especially during the period of Syrian tutelage (1990-2005), it has long been perceived as the newspaper of the right-wing Christian elite. But it has repositioned itself over the last fifteen years, renewing its editorial team and introducing an English-speaking version of its site, called L’Orient Today. Today it remains one of the newspapers most opposed to the growing influence of Hezbollah, an armed Shiite party supported by Iran.
