This article was amended on Saturday, March 16 2019

A previous version of this article incorrectly stated that Rosneft belongs to an international consortium that won a bid to explore Lebanon’s potential oil and gas reserves. In fact, Novatek is the Russian company in this consortium. The Daily Star regrets this error.

A version of this article appeared in the print edition of The Daily Star on March 16, 2019, on page 3.
