US State Department Sets Conditions for Hezbollah
A report published by the American "Defense of Democracy" Foundation discusses the results of Lebanese President Joseph Aoun's meeting with U.S. President Donald Trump. It affirms that the meeting did not resolve the fundamental issue of disarming Hezbollah and the absence of a state monopoly on the use of force. The report emphasizes the importance of Lebanese government steps, such as banning Hezbollah's military activities and supporting negotiations with Israel, but criticizes Aoun for not providing clear practical commitments. It also notes that U.S. support is contingent upon the implementation of a timetable for Hezbollah's disarmament and linking aid to the achievement of these conditions. The report warns that Iran's continued influence complicates the disarmament process and underscores the need for Lebanese government commitments to translate into clear action steps to ensure effective U.S. support.
