“Lebanon Debate”
The meeting between the head of the Free Patriotic Movement, MP Gebran Bassil, and former Lebanese Interior Minister Nohad Mashnouk caught the attention, while they were watching the Brazil-Norway match as part of the Batroun Foot City events dedicated to keeping up with the 2026 World Cup matches, in the presence of the Lebanese artist Amer Zayan.
The appearance of Bassil and Mashnouk alongside Zayan attracted the attention of attendees and social media users, in light of the political differences that have characterized the relationship between the two men over the past years, even though the meeting came within a sporting and social framework.
Batroun Foot City continues to attract political, artistic, media and sports figures, providing football fans with an integrated experience through giant display screens and entertainment activities that simulate the atmosphere of the World Cup.
