Lebanese Report: No Point in Talks Before a New Government Is Formed

In depth

An official in Lebanon said the round of negotiations with Israel held in Florida ended without progress. According to him, the round was held at the request of the Trump administration, and there is no point in resuming talks before a new government is formed in Israel.

Diplomatic sources in Beirut mocked Hezbollah Secretary-General Naim Qassem, who celebrated the defeat of Netanyahu and Trump, but again refused to disarm. Meanwhile, the establishment of an international force to replace UNIFIL in southern Lebanon is being examined.
