Lebanon starts process to reduce Iranian influence
The Lebanese government has secured understandings brokered by the United States to implement a ceasefire with Israel, and Lebanon's president made a historic leap forward in leading direct negotiations. Meanwhile, Hezbollah rejected the agreement that linked the ceasefire to an Israeli withdrawal, and Iran, under the pretext of negotiations with Washington, refused any deal without guarantees for Israel's continued presence in Lebanon, reflecting the party's dependence on Iranian decision-making. These developments are considered a significant step toward reducing Iran's influence in Lebanon and affirming the state's sovereignty, despite Hezbollah's opposition and ongoing challenges on the ground.
