Hill Lunch Event: Lebanon's Elections and Regional Implications
WASHINGTON, DC - United
Against Nuclear Iran (UANI) will host a lunch event tomorrow, Wednesday, May

after its recent parliamentary elections.
How well did Hezbollah and its allies actually do at the

and its sponsor, Iran, now have? What are the ramifications for the
Lebanese state and society and for U.S. policy? And how does the
election's outcome affect mounting tensions between Iran and Israel
in Syria? Key policymakers and experts on Lebanon will answer these
questions.
