Lebanon is demanding for the return of their prime minister after he stepped down from his position over Saudi television. While his airplane returned to Lebanon, he was not a passenger. The Lebanon government believes this is another ploy in the tensions growing with Iran and Saudi Arabia. While officials from other countries have been able to talk to Hariri, the conversation has only been a quick hello and how are you doing? Saudi officials have warned their citizens to leave Lebanon and return to Saudi Arabia as soon as possible. This posses as a sign of war to come to those living in Lebanon. Lebanon is not willing to continue to be a pawn in Saudi's tension with Iran. Only time will tell on what will happen next.
