The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Islamic Republic of Iran played an important role in the country in crisis, in a context in which both emerging regional powers are fighting for its control. But, this influence in Lebanon is not always directly implemented, but through two political parties: the Future Movement, which is run by the Hariri dynasty and represents mostly the Sunnis, and Hezbollah, the most influential Shiite faction, which has a military wing. At the same time, the game of these regional powers in Lebanon is tied to another extreme situation in the Levant: the conflict in Syria. Lebanon is thus consecrated as a "Penetrated PoliticalSystem", in which the differences between local, regional, national and international politics become blurred. Entre 2014 y 2016, la Presidencia de la República Libanesa estuvo vacante. El Reino de Arabia Saudita y la República Islámica de Irán jugaron un rol importante en el país con relación a esa crisis, en un contexto en el que ambas potencias regionales emergentes pujan por su dominio. Dicha influencia no siempre se realiza directamente, sino a través de dos partidos políticos: el Movimiento del Futuro, que dirige la dinastía Hariri y representa mayoritariamente a los sunitas, y Hezbolá, la facción chiita más influyente, que cuenta incluso con un brazo armado. Al mismo tiempo, el juego de estos dos importantes actores regionales en el Líbano está atado a otra situación extrema que se vive en el Levante: el conflicto en Siria. Líbano se consagra así como un “Sistema Político Penetrado”, en el que las diferencias entre las políticas locales, regionales, nacionales e internacionales se vuelven borrosas.
