RAMZI HAIDAR/AFP Pro-Syrian Lebanese greet Syrian troops returning home on their arrival at the al-Masna'a border point in East Lebanon. THE tumultuous events that followed the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik Hariri, which was blamed on Syria, have culminated in a decision by Damascus to pull out all its forces from Lebanon. Syrian troops have been stationed in Lebanon for the past 29 years. On March 12, in the historic Syrian city of Aleppo, senior United Nations official Terje Roed-Larsen announced that Damascus had agreed to pull out all its troops and intelligence services from Lebanon. In his statement, Roed-Larsen said that "the first stage will see the relocation of all military forces and intelligence apparatus to the Bekaa Valley by the end of March". He elaborated that a significant number of Syrian forces, including intelligence services, would withdraw from Lebanon during this stage. Roed-Larsen said that the second stage would see Syria withdrawing its military personnel, assets and intelligence apparatus completely. He, however, did not reveal the cut-off date for the Stage Two pull-out.
