François Picard welcomes Farès Boueiz, former Lebanese Minister of Foreign Affairs. The Israeli-Lebanese talks in the US cannot be defined as a “breakthrough”, explains the former Lebanese minister. He sees this as a technical prelude to meaningful negotiations. What we are witnessing is the exploratory stage of diplomacy. According to Boueiz, the fundamental issue lies in the misalignment of objectives. Lebanon approaches these discussions seeking an immediate ceasefire and the implementation of UN Resolution 1701, while Israel seeks “full political peace and with normalization” of ties.
