Marking the anniversary of the liberation of South Lebanon, the Lebanese President, Joseph Aoun, delivered a firm state address declaring that securing a full 'Israeli' military withdrawal from all Lebanese territories remains an absolute demand.
Aoun issued a strict refusal regarding the current security architecture along the southern border, stating that Lebanon completely rejects the continuation of cross-border aggressions and the ongoing occupation of its frontier villages.
Addressing the current diplomatic framework, the President confirmed that the government is actively working to achieve a complete cessation of hostilities and enforce an 'Israeli' withdrawal through organized negotiations.
However, he emphasized that Lebanon’s participation in the peace track should not be mistaken for weakness, asserting that the diplomatic process "will be neither a surrender nor a concession" regarding national sovereignty.
