Lebanon
President Joseph Aoun reaffirmed Lebanon's commitment to centralizing weapons under state control without internal conflict, while calling for an agreement with Israel and international support for the Lebanese army.
President Joseph Aoun confirmed that the state is determined to monopolize arms in its own hands, but without internal confrontation.
President Aoun emphasized that "Lebanon seeks an agreement with Israel that could pave the way for peace," adding: "We want an alternative force to UNIFIL to avoid a vacuum after its mandate ends, and we call for American, European, and Arab support for the Lebanese Army."
