Everyone has a theory about how to fix Lebanon.

The Lebanese journey of, and into, uncertainty is continuing, for the fifth consecutive year – and the nth time in the century-long history of this republic. Albeit under new management, the state remains stuck between a mountain of debt, a sea of social and economic inequalities, and a black hole in place of once efficient (more or less) institutions. No local or global stakeholder disagrees on the baseline: the country urgently needs tangible trust and solidarity – in form of investments and loans – as much as extreme determination to have a chance of escaping this maelstrom.

Jose Mourinho says current Manchester United boss Erik ten Hag has had more support and trust compared to his own tenure, but still wants the club to succeed.
Mourinho won the Carabao Cup and Europa League in his first season at Old Trafford before finishing second in the Premier League the following campaign.
But the Portuguese, who revealed he had a difficult working relationship with former Man Utd chief executive Ed Woodward, was sacked in December 2018 after a poor run of results.
But Man Utd's fortunes have not improved in the last five-and-a-half years. Ten Hag is the third manager to take charge of the club since then, following on from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer in 2022, with Ralf Rangnick taking over in the interim.
"I am who I am. I am a football man. Ed comes from a different background and what Ten Hag has in his time at Manchester United I didn't have. I didn't have that level of support. I didn't have that level of trust.
"So I left sad, because I felt I was in the beginning of the process. In some moments, I felt if they trusted me and believed in my experience things could be different."
Ten Hag has seen the incoming of new part-owner Sir John Ratcliffe this season. He is now in charge of running the football operations at the club along with a new set of directors.
Questions remain over what Ten Hag's future could hold this summer and in terms of transfer spending, he does lead Mourinho. However, only by £10.1m, with Solskjaer seeing the biggest spend at £441m.
