Amin Gemayel

Amin Gemayel
Amin Gemayel was elected president of Lebanon after his younger brother, Bashir, was assassinated three weeks into his presidency in 1982. Amin was a less controversial figure than his brother, but the civil war (1975-1989) prevented him from creating a well-organized government.
