Aoun in Washington to Discuss Lebanon-Israel Issue
The article discusses Lebanese President Joseph Aoun's visit to Washington to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump on July 21, with the aim of discussing the Israeli withdrawal from areas in southern Lebanon. This aligns with US-sponsored negotiations that began in April to end the state of war between Lebanon and Israel. In June, the two sides agreed on a framework deal that includes the disarmament of Hezbollah and a gradual Israeli withdrawal from occupied territories, with pilot zones to be implemented. The deal is to be carried out based on general principles without a fixed timeline, as Israel refuses to withdraw unless Hezbollah is disarmed—relying on Iran's support—while the Israeli military continues to carry out strikes in southern Lebanon despite ongoing tensions. The visit aims to support efforts to solidify a ceasefire and de-escalate tensions in the region.
