Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri stated that the annulment of the 1955 law boycotting Israel will not pass in the Lebanese Parliament. He emphasized that the situation is under control and that the country is not in chaos. This comes amidst external pressures, particularly from the U.S. ambassador in Beirut, to link Lebanese financial and military aid to amendments of this law. Berri reaffirmed that there is no intention to propose a law to cancel the boycott and that there are no open doors for Israel in Lebanon. He warned against deepening internal divisions or provoking sectarian tensions in order to maintain stability. He also clarified that most parliamentary blocs are not currently enthusiastic about this step, considering that abandoning the boycott laws could be a significant loss of leverage for the Lebanese state.
