The Donald Trump administration is seeking to lock in new security arrangements in southern Lebanon before Democrats take control of Congress in January 2027. The effort comes amid pressure on Beirut to place all weapons under state control and warnings of further sanctions if implementation is delayed. The proposals include using technology and intelligence firms for surveillance and data provision, but not deploying an armed force to replace UNIFIL. Authority to move and conduct inspections would remain with the Lebanese army. Beirut is wary, fearing information could leak to Israel, and funding has yet to be settled. The negotiations come as UNIFIL’s operations are set to end on December 31, 2026. Meanwhile, US aid could face closer scrutiny and be tied to results on the ground.
