France Proposes Mediating Israel-Lebanon Discussions

French President Emmanuel Macron announced on Saturday that Lebanon is prepared to “engage in direct talks” with Israel and proposed hosting the discussions in Paris. Macron shared on social media that the Lebanese government is ready for dialogue, following his conversations with Lebanon’s President Joseph Aoun, Prime Minister Nawaf Salam, and House Speaker Nabih Berri. He emphasized that all elements of Lebanon should be involved in these talks and urged Israel to use this chance to start discussions, declare a ceasefire, seek a lasting resolution, and enable Lebanon to uphold its sovereignty commitments.
