Michel Naim Aoun (Arabic: ميشال نعيم عون) is a Lebanese Maronite Christian politican and army general who has been serving as the President of Lebanon since 2016.

Born in Haret Hreik, Aoun joined the Military Academy in 1955 and graduated as an artillery officer in the Lebanese Army. In the Lebanese Civil War, he took part in the Siege of Tel al-Zaatar, and led the 8th Infantry Brigade during the Mountain War. He was allied with the Lebanese Front and the United States against Syria and the Palestinian factions. In 1984, he bacame the youngest Commander of the Army, at the age of 49 years.

In 1988, he was appointed as Prime Minister by the departing President Amine Gemayel, who formed a military government after the parliament failed to elect a new president, dismissing the current government by Selim Hoss. Supported by Syria, Hoss refused this decision, which caused the rise of two rival governments contending for power, with Aoun being supported by Christians and Iraq, while the other being supported by Muslims and Syria.

As Prime Minister, Aoun declared the War of Liberation on Syria in 1989, opposed the Taif Agreement, refused to refused to recognize the newly elected presidents René Moawad and Elias Hrawi, and clashed with the Lebanese Forces led by Samir Geagea. On 13 October 1990, the Syrian forces launched a decisive operation against him, invading his strongholds, including the Presidential Palace in Baabda, and killing hundreds of Lebanese soldiers and civilians. He fled to the French Embassy where he declared his surrender and was later granted asylum in France, where he lived in exile for 15 years.

In his exile, he founded the Free Patriotic Movement, and played a key role in the Syria Accountability Act by testifying in Congress in 2003. Following the assassination of Rafic Hariri in 2005, a chain of widespread demonstrations erupted in Lebanon and resulted in the withdrawal of Syrian troops from the country. Eleven days later, Aoun returned to Lebaon.

He won a seat in the Parliament in the 2005 general election, and headed the parliamentary bloc "Change and Reform", which was formed of 21 deputies. In 2006, he signed a memorandum of understanding with Hezbollah, and joined the March 8 Alliance. (اعتصام المعارضة واتفاق الدوحة). He also visited the Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in 2008, ending his rivalry with Syria.

, Aoun signed with Geagea after signing and was endorsed by the Lebanese Forces, Future Movement, Progressive Socialist Party as well as Hezbollah to become the thirteenth President of Lebanon. He is the oldest president, taking office at the age of 81 years. After his election, he was sworn in and succeded Michel Suleiman.

The country descended into chaos with a popular uprising, bringing millions of Lebanese in Lebanon and abroad to take to the streets, mainly caused by the liquidity crisis, political corruption and sectarianism.
