Verification dispute and Israel's disarmament condition
The article addresses the challenges Lebanon faces in its direct negotiations with Israel regarding disarmament and verification mechanisms. Concerns are raised that a campaign questioning the Lebanese army's ability to implement agreements could be used as a means to undermine its role. It explains that the dispute over the verification mechanism—considered crucial for the success of the framework agreement and the integration of designated areas—poses a significant obstacle, with debates over which party will oversee this mechanism and the required verification standards, especially since Israel links its withdrawal to the disarmament of Hezbollah throughout Lebanon. There are also fears that repeated complications in this mechanism could be exploited as a tool to impose a military and political equation, threatening Lebanon’s stability and deepening internal divisions. Ultimately, the article emphasizes that the success or failure of the verification process will depend on Lebanon’s response to Israeli ambitions and the international stance, particularly as the mandate of UNIFIL approaches its end and Israel's approach to the security zone evolves.
