Lebanese worries over delay until US and Israeli votes
The article discusses the ongoing Lebanese-Israeli negotiations in Rome, with the eighth round expected to take place in September. However, its final date depends on U.S. pressure to make progress in the talks before the Israeli elections and the U.S. midterm elections. The text indicates that failure to achieve tangible progress could prolong the crisis, leaving Lebanon in a "political holiday" situation that exacerbates economic and social burdens. It also emphasizes the demand to evacuate the "Ali al-Tahir" hills as a key step toward ending the tension. The article explores Hezbollah's position, particularly its insistence on maintaining its weapons, in the face of increasing Israeli pressures. It calls for the removal of the hills to pave the way for a ceasefire and the implementation of the "Framework Agreement" between the parties. The piece concludes that maintaining the current situation could lead to escalating tensions and casts doubt on Hezbollah's ability to shift the balance of power or restore the rules of engagement, suggesting that the best solution is to evacuate the hills to facilitate peace and a settlement.
