Trump approves Lebanon settlement plan
ARK News.. American reports indicated that President-elect Donald Trump has approved a settlement plan in Lebanon.
The American Wall Street Journal reported, citing Israeli officials, that "the American president-elect expressed his hope to implement the settlement agreement in Lebanon before his inauguration."
According to the American newspaper, the broad outlines of the settlement proposal in Lebanon stipulate that Hezbollah transfer its forces and weapons to the north of the Littani River, and that the Lebanese army and UNIFIL forces will work according to the plan to prevent Hezbollah's return to southern Lebanon.
The newspaper added that the main sticking point is ensuring Israel's ability to impose a ceasefire agreement if the United Nations and the Lebanese army fail to do so.
This comes amid reports that US Ambassador to Lebanon Lisa Johnson delivered a draft truce proposal to Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri on Thursday, according to two political sources who spoke to Reuters without going into details.
