"It has been an honour to visit Lebanon once again - but it grieves me to see the people of this beautiful country suffering so much. Political leaders must work together to implement reforms that respond to the demands of the people & give hope for a better future," Guterres said.
In another tweet, the U.N. chief said young people and civil society "must have every opportunity to play their full part as Lebanon strives to overcome its many challenges."
"The people of Lebanon must be fully engaged in choosing how the country moves forward," he added.
