Hankesh: President shifts Lebanon's stance
The article discusses President Joseph Aoun's stance, which he reiterated during his visit to Washington, on redefining the conditions for Lebanese-Israeli negotiations. He linked the attainment of exclusive arms possession in Lebanon to three essential requirements: ending the Israeli occupation, establishing the authority of the state through the Lebanese army over all territories, and restoring the country’s sovereignty under state leadership. Aoun emphasized that the ultimate goal is to achieve full sovereignty for Lebanon, with the issue of disarmament moving beyond a mere security matter to become a fundamental condition for stability and state sovereignty. He based his position on the principle that the ultimate solution lies in the Israeli withdrawal and the monopolization of arms by the state, alongside strengthening the army's capabilities. Other factions, however, expressed caution about adopting new equations, believing that working on the ground and in accordance with international resolutions remains the only path to achieving these goals. The announcement of these conditions marks a shift in Lebanon’s stance, aimed at establishing clear criteria for achieving complete sovereignty over its territory, while reaffirming U.S. support for the Lebanese army and continued military aid.
