🌲 - 🇱🇧🇺🇸 Barak from Baabda Palace: Everyone is exhausted by what has happened, and now there’s an opportunity that must be seized. We want Lebanon to deal with Hezbollah — not us. We’re not dictating what Lebanon should do; rather, we’re supporting it in the decisions it makes. The mechanism that existed between Lebanon and Israel did not proceed along the right track. There is no connection between our discussions in Lebanon and Iran. Hezbollah is purely a Lebanese problem — you must resolve it yourselves.

🌲 - 🇱🇧🇺🇸 Barak from Baabda Palace: Security will guarantee the inflow of investments into Lebanon. The Lebanese response falls within the range we are aiming for. Syria has moved from total chaos to a place of hope, despite lacking what Lebanon possesses. Israel does not want a war with Lebanon. The Lebanese response came in 15 points and was marked by a sense of responsibility.

🌲 - 🇱🇧🇺🇸 Barak from Baabda Palace: Dialogue has begun between Syria and Israel, and there is a need for a fundamental shift on Lebanon’s part. Hezbollah must realize that it has an opportunity for peace. Lebanese consensus is essential to reaching a solution.

🌲 - 🇱🇧🇺🇸 Sources from the Lebanese Presidency: President Aoun met with the American envoy and handed him Lebanese proposals, which the official Lebanese side considers an initiative for a comprehensive solution. The proposal consists of 7 pages with detailed points that Barak will convey and review with his team. The meeting was positive, and a response is expected soon.

Israel wants peace with Lebanon.

Israel does not want war with Lebanon, nor does it want to occupy Lebanon. Rather, it respects it and its diversity.

Trump believes that Lebanon is still the key to the region and can be the pearl of the Mediterranean, and he entrusted me with this responsibility, which I am carrying out.

You were the Switzerland of the East, and now you can take advantage of this opportunity. Security and peace are essential, and no one will come if you are at war.

My opinion: We should be listening to this guy. But I'm sure we won't and we will fuck it up and get dragged into another war.

🌲 - 🇱🇧🇺🇸 Head of the Lebanese Forces Party, Samir Geagea, stated that the response to U.S. envoy Tom Barak is neither constitutional, legal, nor official, as executive authority belongs to the Council of Ministers as a whole, according to Article 65 of the Constitution. He called on the Prime Minister to convene the Cabinet to discuss the proposal, warning against dragging Lebanon toward the abyss.

🌲 - 🇵🇸 A senior Hamas security official told the BBC on Sunday that the Palestinian Islamist movement has lost around 80% of its grip on the Gaza Strip. After 21 months of Israeli offensives following Hamas's “Al-Aqsa Flood” operation launched on October 7, 2023, the resulting power vacuum is now being filled by rival armed clans.
