In order to have the complete control over Lebanon, Syria assigned Lebanese pro-Syrian officials puppets, not elected from the people of Lebanon but totally assigned from Syria, in order to manipulate them.

Syria and these Lebanese officials puppets signed the treaty that gave Syria more power than before, and even a complete power over Lebanon.

The following is an exact translation of this puppet treaty with the terrorist government of Syria:
