The Lebanese Foreign minister on Monday submitted his resignation to the prime minister, according to a government source.

The source said that Nassif Hitti submitted his resignation to Hassan Diab this morning.

In his resignation letter, Hitti regretted the “absence of a vision for Lebanon as I believe in it as a free, independent and capable nation”, as well as the absence of a “real will to achieve structural reforms … which our national society asks for and the international community are calling on us to do”.
