Lebanon at UN Calls for Israeli Exit
Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati reaffirmed Lebanon's full sovereignty over its occupied territories, calling for Israel's withdrawal from them and the enforcement of Lebanese state authority across the entire national territory, with weapons restricted to the state. He clarified that Lebanon faces three main challenges: restoring confidence after the financial collapse and the Beirut port explosion, regaining its national decision-making authority, and recovering its occupied lands. He emphasized that no one has the right to speak on Lebanon's behalf or negotiate on its behalf except its constitutional institutions. He affirmed that Lebanon's future depends on restoring public trust, achieving sovereignty, and ensuring permanent security and stability. He also stated that the success of any agreement depends on implementing commitments within a clear timeline. Additionally, he called for Israel to withdraw from Lebanese lands in accordance with UN Resolution 1701, the release of prisoners, and reconstruction efforts, stressing that reconstruction means a safe life and dignity for citizens. He highlighted that Lebanon's responsibility lies in reforming itself and urged the international community to provide funding and ensure respect for Lebanon's sovereignty and the implementation of international resolutions.
