The Port of Beirut on Monday witnessed the delivery of eight M2A2 Bradley fighting vehicles and ten armored field artillery ammunition supply vehicles to the Lebanese army provided by the US authorities, as part of the US aids to the military.


The delivery ceremony took place in the presence of Army Commander General Joseph Aoun's Representative, Brigadier General Jean Farah, US Ambassador to Lebanon, Elizabeth Richard, and Lebanese and US army officers.


In her delivered word, Ambassador Richard said: "We are here at the Port of Beirut to mark the delivery of eight M2A2 Bradley Fighting Vehicles. These are the very first of a total shipment of 32 Bradleys that will be delivered in the coming months. This contribution to the Lebanese Armed Forces represents an investment of over 100 million dollars. It will provide the Lebanese Armed Forces with new capabilities to protect Lebanon, to protect its borders, and to fight terrorists.


Over the next several months, the Army will undergo intensive training on how to operate and maintain this new, very sophisticated combat system."


The US Ambassador also said "Over the last few years, as you know, the United States has intensified its engagement and support to the Lebanese Army," summing up the US defense articles provided to the Lebanese Army in the past 12 months.


Richard added: "America's support for Lebanon is based on the shared interests of the American people and the Lebanese people. Our support is based on the principle that we share the same goals for stability and security in this country."


Riachard concluded: "Today, on behalf of the American people, I am pleased to once again demonstrate our long-term commitment to Lebanon and our support long term to the Army - and only the army - as it fights terrorism and defends the borders of this country."


Brigadier Farah, for his part, thanked the US Government for its munificent donation and support for the Lebanese Army, which shall strengthen the combat and logistical conditions of the Army contributing to its success in its battles against the terrorist organizations in the eastern border, as well as to maintaining security and stability across the country.


The Brigadier also pointed out that today's donation confirms the United States' confidence in the Lebanese army and the importance of maintaining the partnership between the armies of both countries
