The US Ambassador to Beirut, Dorothy Shea, completed her farewell tour with officials in Lebanon and left to join her new duty station in New York, with the new Ambassador, Lisa Johnson, arriving before the middle of next month.
In this context, Amos Hockstein, advisor to the US President for Energy Affairs, wrote on his account on the “x” platform: “Today we bid farewell to Dorothy Shea, one of our best diplomats and the best US ambassador to Lebanon.”
Hockstein addressed Shea, saying: “A great champion of the strong relationship between the United States and Lebanon. It was an honor and a privilege to have a distinguished partner in Beirut. We have achieved a lot and we will miss you.”
