In a decisive name for peace, MP Ashraf Rifi of the Renewal Bloc has urged the Lebanese authorities to implement UN Decision 1701, which mandates the disarmament of non-state armed teams south of the Litani River.
In a gathering with caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati, Rifi emphasised the urgency of concrete actions to forestall army operations alongside the southern border and to limit armed presence solely to the Lebanese military and UNIFIL.
This transfer is essential to guard Lebanon from the perils of battle and to keep up its sovereignty away from regional conflicts. The Renewal Bloc additionally advocated for Lebanon’s position in supporting Arab efforts in the direction of peace in Gaza and the two-state resolution.
Moreover, they proposed the event of President René Moawad’s airport in Kleiat for civilian use, highlighting the emergency state of the nation. Amidst these discussions, Mikati obtained an invitation to the Emergency Arab Summit in Riyadh, specializing in the state of affairs in Gaza and Palestine.
