According to a report by the official Lebanese news agency NNA, Lebanese Foreign Minister Abdallah Bou Habib met with Cowell, who was summoned to the ministry.
The statement noted that a protest note was handed to Cowell regarding Cameron's visit to Beirut on February 1, though it did not provide specific details on the reasons for the note.
PROTOCOL RULES NOT FOLLOWED
Reports in the Lebanese media claimed that the note was issued because Cameron did not coordinate with the Lebanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs as required by protocol during his visit to Lebanon, and did not meet with his counterpart, Bou Habib.
As part of his Middle East tour, Cameron arrived in Beirut on February 1, where he met with Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati, Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, and commanders of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL).
