Conference of Arab Kings and Heads of State, Beirut- President Chamoun and President Nasser
The Beirut Summit of November 1956 was primarily convened in response to the Suez Crisis (Tripartite Aggression against Egypt) to formulate a unified Arab diplomatic stance and extend solidarity to the Egyptian state. This key issue from the series features Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser alongside the host, President Camille Chamoun.
Issued in November 1956, this airmail commemorative stamp (LIBAN / POSTE AÉRIENNE / لبنان) depicts President Camille Chamoun on the left and Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser on the right set within twin frames, flanked by ornamental scrollwork to honor regional leadership and solidarity during the crisis.
