UNIFIL Exit, US Sanctions
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and French President Emmanuel Macron discussed the future of southern Lebanon as UNIFIL’s mandate approaches its end on December 31. Paris is proposing a strengthened role for UN truce observers to monitor the area and accompany the deployment of the Lebanese army, rather than a similar military mission. Beirut insists on the army’s sovereignty and rejects the displacement of residents or any restrictions on their return, while Washington’s and Israel’s positions on the French proposal remain unclear. Meanwhile, sources said the United States is considering sanctions against political, military and security figures, as well as judges, though their implementation may hinge on the possibility of a strike on Iran.
