The Launch of Francophone Games in Beirut




The 6th Francophone Games, the 'Jeux de la Francophonie', were formally launched this evening in Beirut.

The games running until October 6 are being attended by 42 countries. They reflect Lebanon's diversity, as Beirut is a venue in which all cultures and religions meet.

The players and the states participating in this tournament are welcomed to the country of the cedars, grouping on its soil all races and languages.

The event is held every 4 years with the participation of more than 3,000 athletes.
