Aoun in Washington: Standoff over Occupation and Arms
The article highlights the difficulties faced in implementing Lebanon's receipt of areas from which Israel is withdrawing as part of the southern understandings. Military sources indicate that Israel is stalling and not rushing to withdraw, while the Lebanese army is ready to move immediately once the Israeli withdrawal begins. The article also raises concerns about the expansion of the Lebanese army's deployment north of the Litani River, which poses a challenge to Hezbollah's presence. Success in this experience could reduce the justifications for weapons outside the state's authority. Officials emphasize that the stance of the United States and Israel is a decisive factor, with ongoing negotiations between Lebanon and America. Lebanon aims to secure practical support to carry out the withdrawal and establish the state's control over all regions. The article concludes with concerns that efforts may fail if Israel is not compelled to withdraw and if a balance is not achieved between the need to strengthen state authority and the risk of expanding the influence of armed groups.
