Shinker: No Israeli pullout without Hezbollah disarmament

The article discusses David Shinker's assessment, the former U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Middle East Affairs, of Lebanese President Joseph Aoun's visit to the United States and its impact on the future of the framework agreement between Lebanon and Israel. Shinker emphasizes that Washington supports efforts to implement the agreement, despite significant obstacles, including Israeli hesitations stemming from recent elections and attempts by Hezbollah to obstruct the process through re-escalation and challenges to the Lebanese Army's control. He affirms that the United States will pressure both sides to ensure the Israeli withdrawals are carried out and Hezbollah disarmed. Shinker notes that the success of this process depends on on-the-ground verification, and he expects that with the commitment of both parties, the situation can gradually improve. Over time, there may be incremental progress toward a peace agreement between Lebanon and Israel, although achieving this will require considerable time and effort to build trust and stability.
