US Officials Confirm Plan For ‘Trump Economic Zone’ In South Lebanon

Pro-Israel senator Lindsey Graham and other US officials held talks with Lebanese leaders in Beirut, calling on the resistance to surrender its weapons

US and Lebanese officials met on 26 August to discuss efforts to disarm Hezbollah, with Washington doubling down on its demands for the resistance to surrender its weapons and conforming to plans for an “economic zone” in south Lebanon.

Pro-Israel senator Lindsey Graham and US envoys Tom Barrack and Morgan Ortagus led the US delegation that visited Lebanon.

Graham and the other US officials met with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun in the Presidential Palace in Baabda on Tuesday, and are set to hold talks with Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri.

Graham urged Beirut to make “hard decisions quickly” and warned that Hezbollah’s armed presence is a “wall to growth and integration into the region,” the senator told This is Beirut in an interview after the meeting.

“This is a very pluralistic society. One thing you have going for you is that Christianity is able to thrive here, worship freely, do business, and live in peace – something that is not true in much of the Middle East. My advice to you is to keep that diversity and try to find a way to get Hezbollah disarmed, because if you can't achieve that, then a lot of doors stay locked. But the day that Hezbollah is disarmed, and the Lebanese military is the protector of the country for all Lebanese, then many doors could open,” he added.

Iran Hopes To Begin Russian Gas Imports Via Azerbaijan In ‘Near Future’

This follows an agreement to accelerate the Rasht–Astara railway, seen as central to Iran–Russia trade integration

Iran’s ambassador to Russia, Kazem Jalali, said on 25 August that deliveries of Russian gas through the Republic of Azerbaijan could begin “in the near future” once a pricing agreement is finalized.

Speaking to Russia’s TASS news agency, Jalali confirmed that discussions with the Russian multinational energy corporation Gazprom are in their final stages. “Almost all issues have been resolved, but we need to reach a common language on pricing,” he explained. “Once that is agreed, everything will be operational.”

Jalali also noted that by the end of 2025, Iran expects to expand the nationwide use of Russia’s Mir payment cards, further embedding financial cooperation between the two sanctioned states.

The envoy condemned what he described as western complicity in Israel’s crimes against Palestinians. He accused Israel of waging a “proxy war” on behalf of western powers and denounced Tel Aviv’s strikes on civilians in Gaza as “crimes against humanity.”

Addressing the June escalation with the US–Israeli alliance, Jalali stressed that Iran had demonstrated its readiness to respond. “Iran is not Gaza,” he warned. “If attacked, we will react seriously.”

Somewhere in the answer to that question, is the prime reason for why BRICS is rising.
