Nawaf Salam urges tripartite framework for Israeli withdrawal
The article focuses on Lebanese Prime Minister Nawar Salameh's call to activate the "Tripartite Framework" to achieve Israel's complete withdrawal from Lebanese territory and to restrict weapons to the Lebanese state. This was stated during his meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Washington, where he emphasized the importance of establishing a clear timetable for implementing the agreement reached last June, which stipulates a phased Israeli withdrawal in exchange for the Lebanese Army's deployment and the disarmament of armed groups, including Hezbollah. The meeting also addressed continued U.S. support for Lebanon and efforts to strengthen the Lebanese Army, especially amidst security tensions and potential confrontations in southern Lebanon. There are expectations that the United Nations peacekeeping forces, "UNIFIL," will begin withdrawing by the end of 2026. The agreement remains incomplete, as most areas occupied by Israel are still under its control, with ongoing threats and violations of Lebanese territory.
