Chamoun, Camille
Born 1900 in Deir el Qamer. Lebanese statesman and political figure. Chamoun received a law degree in 1924. He held various government posts during the 1930’s and 1940’s, and from 1952 to 1958 he was president of Lebanon. As president, Chamoun carried out a policy of rapprochement with the imperialist powers. He was forced to resign in September 1958 as a result of a popular uprising. In 1958, Chamoun founded the National Liberal Party, the party of the reactionary Maronite bourgeoisie, landowners, and clergy, and became its chairman. He was a leader of the reactionary forces of the right during the Lebanese civil war of 1975–76. Want to thank TFD for its existence?

The lavish opening ceremony -- the one event watched by a respectably-sized crowd -- also unfolded under the beady eyes of troops peering down from the wings of Camille Chamoun. The opening of the sixth Francophone Games at the Beirut-based Camille Chamoun Sports Stadium, which took place on Sunday evening and was televised live to more than 70 million millions worldwide, was another event helping to put Lebanon back on the international map, Charles Ayyoub, editor and publisher of the local daily AD DIYAR, said Monday. |
