Washington backs disarmament to establish authority

The article discusses Lebanese President Michel Aoun's visit to Washington, during which he delivered a speech before American delegations and Congress. In his speech, he emphasized the importance of strengthening the relationship between Lebanon and the United States and working toward restoring Lebanon’s sovereignty and unity. Aoun highlighted the necessity of disarming Hezbollah, expressing that this is linked to restoring authority and rebuilding the Lebanese state through political reforms and enhancing the capabilities of the military, especially the Lebanese Army. He stressed that Lebanon is going through a difficult phase, and that the solution begins with the complete control of the state over its territories, surrendering illegal weapons, and preserving national unity. The speech noted that cooperation with the United States could contribute to Lebanon’s stability, with a focus on supporting the Lebanese Army as a trusted national institution. Disarming Hezbollah, he indicated, requires at least removing the Israeli occupation as a justified reason for its existence and strengthening the military and political efforts of the Lebanese state. The speech concluded with a call to build a bridge that transforms Lebanon from a battleground of others’ conflicts into a country filled with peace and development, emphasizing that strength, legitimacy, and sovereign decision-making are the foundation for overcoming division and restoring stability.
