UNIFIL's Exit: Is Lebanon More Independent

The article is expected to focus on the developments in Lebanon after the end of UNIFIL's mandate, as Europe gradually increases its support for the Lebanese Army and Internal Security Forces through the establishment of a civilian and military mission in Lebanon, aiming to strengthen control over territories and borders. However, there are concerns about the potential withdrawal of European presence amid ongoing internal and international calls to extend or terminate UNIFIL's mission, especially given the United States' rejection of reducing or ending the mission, which has been ongoing for over fifty years. Lebanon is likely to remain increasingly self-reliant, particularly in light of continued security and political challenges, with an urgent need to enhance border control and achieve sovereignty, all within the complex regional situation and the lasting impacts of the ongoing conflicts in the area.
