Local media reported that a papal visit to Lebanon is expected on June 12.
Pope Francis has expressed his desire to travel to the Middle Eastern country on several occasions.
During an in-flight press conference returning from Malta on April 3, Pope Francis said he would like to meet with Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and that the Middle East was being considered as the location for the encounter.
Plans for a second meeting between Pope Francis and the leader of the Russian Orthodox Church in June or July 2022 have been underway for several months.
Pope Francis received Aoun at the Vatican on March 21, as Lebanon continues to reel from multiple crises.
In recent years, Lebanon has grappled with an influx of refugees from the war in Syria, a devastating financial crisis, a lack of stable governance, and the impact of COVID-19.
