'''Armenian-Lebanese relations''' are very friendly. [[Lebanon]] is host to the eighth largest Armenian population in the world and is the only member of the [[Arab League]], much less of the [[Middle East]] and the [[Islamic World]] that recognizes the [[Armenian Genocide]]. During the [[2006 Lebanon War]], Armenia announced that it would send humanitarian aid to Lebanon. According to the Armenian government, an unspecified amount of medicines, tents and fire-fighting equipment was allocated to Lebanese authorities on [[July 27]], [[2006]].<ref>[http://www.armenialiberty.org/armeniareport/report/en/2006/07/EB9E5465-7B17-4A96-B513-03AA0567FAB0.ASP Armenia To Provide Relief To Lebanon], Armenialiberty.org</ref><ref>[http://www.panarmenian.net/news/eng/?nid=18992&page=1 Armenia Sent Humanitarian Assistance To Lebanon], PanArmenian.Net</ref>
