group hezbollah: In Paris, he received the reassurances he was looking for, according to The Chronicle Herald. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said the United States and other attendees wanted to help Lebanon move forward on security and prepare for national elections slated for May. Saad Hariri, who scrambled Lebanese politics by resigning from his post last month and then rescinding the move, has turned to Lebanon's global backers to endorse a policy of dissociation that many hope will extract the tiny country from the escalating rivalry between Saudi Arabia and Iran. He added that it was critical to ensure the disengagement of the militant group Hezbollah from regional conflicts, including Yemen's civil war. Lebanon has been buffeted by regional rivalries and the war in neighbouring Syria. French Foreign Minister Jean-Yves Le Drian said Belgium would host a conference next year to find ways to help Lebanon handle its massive refugee population. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
