Syria in Lebanon: U.S. Policy Divergence

The article discusses the contradictions in the American stance regarding the future role of Syria in Lebanon. It presents two contrasting messages received within a few days: one from Beirut affirming Washington's rejection of any Syrian intervention in Lebanon, and another from a U.S. diplomatic source in Turkey suggesting the possibility that Syria could play a role in addressing the issues related to Hezbollah and the Lebanese conflict, through military support officially requested from the Lebanese government and under international cover. The available information indicates that the Trump administration has not undergone a fundamental change; rather, there is a perspective within it that sees Damascus as part of the solution, not the problem. Trump has sought to support Syria in the process of disarming Hezbollah, while the State Department's stance remains opposed to any return of Syrian influence in Lebanon. The article raises questions about the consistency of American statements and how Washington manages the Syrian-Lebanese file within the context of a broader regional arrangement.
