Efforts to resume dialogue between Lebanese President Joseph Aoun and Hezbollah have stalled over the party’s insistence on keeping its weapons and on the US-Iranian “memorandum of understanding,” and its rejection of the “framework agreement” the government is committed to, which would place all arms under state control. Nabih Berri is leading efforts to ease tensions. A ministerial source said that Aoun and Prime Minister Nawaf Salam’s handling of the case of the explosives shipment seized in Dahr al-Baydar helped prevent an escalation. The source urged Hezbollah to engage in the state-building project and take regional changes into account. Parallel talks are focusing on a force to replace UNIFIL when its mission ends at the close of the year. Proposals include strengthening the role of truce observers and assigning the “Mechanism” committee, in a new format, to oversee the deployment of the Lebanese army.
