Hezbolá has rejected disarmament while Israel continues to attack Lebanon, after he asks us to resign to weapons in four months.
A senior envoy from the United States has praised the response of the Lebanese government to an American proposal aimed at disarming Hezbollah amid Israel's continuous military presence in the country.
Thomas Barrack, an advisor to the president of the United States, Donald Trump, who serves as Washington ambassador to Turkiye and special envoy for Syria, returned to Beirut on Monday after delivering the US proposal. Uu. During a June 19 visit.
The plan required that the Chiíta Hezbollah group is completely disarmed within four months in exchange for stopping to the Israeli air attacks and the full withdrawal of the Israel military of the five positions that continue to occupy in the south of Lebanon.
“What the government gave us was something spectacular in a very short period of time,” Barrack told journalists on Monday after meeting with Lebanese president Joseph Aoun. “I am incredibly satisfied with the answer.”
While Barrack confirmed that he had received a seven -page response from the Lebanese side, he did not offer details about his content.
Barrack said he believed that both Lebanon and Israel were looking for a path to decalcalation. “Both countries are trying to do the same: the notion of a suspension agreement, the cessation of hostilities and a path to peace.”
The comments arrive as the tensions remain high, since Israel continues to bombard the Lebanon despite accepting a high fire in November.
The conflict between Israel and Hezbollah broke out in October 2023 after the Lebanese group attacked Israel in solidarity with the Palestinian group Hamas in Gaza. According to the Lebanese authorities, the leader of Hezbollah, the leader of Hezbollah, and the leader of Hezbollah, the leader of Hezbollah Nasrallah and other senior officials and senior officials of senior officials, included more than 4,000 people, including the leader of Hezbollah, Hassan Nasrallah and other senior officials, and displacing almost 1.4 million people, according to Lebanese authorities.
The president and prime minister of Lebanon, both installed earlier this year, have promised to strengthen the State and the Army, and said that Hezbollah, seen for a long time as the most powerful military force of Lebanon, should not be more powerful than the government.
However, Israel has continued to attack Lebanon, claiming that its operations aim to prevent Hezbollah from rearming. Lebanese health officials say that around 250 people have been killed and more than 600 wounds in Israeli attacks from Alto El Fuego.
Hezbollah has not issued a formal response to the United States proposal. However, its leader, Naim Qassem, said Sunday that the group will not disarm while Israel continued its aggression.
“We are not asked to soften our posture or place our arms while [Israeli] The aggression continues, ”Qassem told thousands of followers during Ashura's commemorations in the South Beirut suburbs.
Barrack acknowledged that Hezbollah would need guarantees that he could continue to operate as a political force within Lebanon.
But the signs of decalcalation were absent on the ground. A few hours before the arrival of Barrack, Israel launched a wave of air attacks in the south and east of Lebanon and carried out a land invasion in a border village.
Lebanese officials and diplomats said that the last military action seemed to be an attempt to increase hezbollah pressure before diplomatic discussions.
