Turkey's Foreign Ministry on Tuesday has welcomed the unveiling of the new Lebanese government.
In a written statement that was published on its website, the ministry said the political process "had advanced" with the election of the country's 13th president.
"We would like to congratulate the brother Lebanese people on the new government," the ministry said.
Lebanon on Sunday unveiled a 30-member government drawn up from most of the country's political groups.
“This is a government of national unity that will tackle all crises," Prime Minister Saad al-Hariri told a news conference.
“The government will maintain security, stability amid fires that have ravaged the region and shield our country from the negative consequences of the Syrian crisis," he said.
The new government includes 23 newcomers and one woman.
