Naufal Salam Presents New Lebanon Plan
The Lebanese Prime Minister Nouvaf Salam's statements focused on the necessity of Israel’s complete withdrawal from Lebanese territories and the cessation of its attacks. He emphasized the importance of establishing the Lebanese state's authority over its entire land, with weapons, decisions on war and peace, and sovereignty all firmly under the control of the Lebanese government. He also underscored the significance of maintaining Lebanese sovereignty and the need for an international force to protect the south after the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) completes its mission at the end of the year, while rejecting any external intervention outside the scope of United Nations Security Council resolutions. Furthermore, he discussed efforts to strengthen relations with Syria through regional connectivity projects in electricity and railways. Salam highlighted Lebanon’s ongoing efforts toward reform and the restoration of its sovereignty. On the ground, Lebanon has experienced increased military escalation by Israel, including shelling southern towns and explosions near Bint Jbeil, as part of the ongoing conflict that has been continuing since March 2026, despite a ceasefire declared in June of the previous year.
