France warns that Israel’s presence in southern Lebanon could become a long-term or permanent occupation. It urges the Lebanese authorities to turn their commitments to restricting weapons and extending state authority into practical steps, warning that the situation could otherwise pave the way for a resumption of the war. As UNIFIL’s mandate nears its end, and with the United States and Israel opposing its extension, Paris is pursuing three lines of action: supporting the Lebanese army, mobilizing European assistance to train and equip it, and exploring the possibility of a replacement or supplementary force, with 10 European countries ready to contribute. France stresses that disarming Hezbollah is not the task of the Lebanese army or any European force. But it believes that without an effective army presence in the south, the occupation could expand and the crisis become more complicated.
