Lebanon’s goal to end hostilities with Israel ‘forever’, says president

Lebanon’s president has said the country’s long-term objective is to bring hostilities with Israel to a permanent end, according to a report monitored from a public feed.

The remarks were attributed to Lebanese President Aoun in comments relayed by Al Jazeera Latest, where he said Lebanon’s “ultimate objective” is to end conflict with Israel “forever.” The statement was reportedly made in a message to Donald Trump, though the feed summary does not provide additional detail on the timing, setting or full contents of the exchange.

The comment comes amid a broader regional backdrop in which tensions involving Lebanon and Israel remain a major political and security concern. In the limited information available from the monitored feed, the emphasis was on Lebanon’s desire for a lasting resolution rather than a temporary pause in fighting.

No further specifics were included in the summary about whether the president outlined conditions for achieving such an outcome, or how Israeli officials responded. The feed also did not indicate whether the statement was linked to any ongoing diplomatic initiative, ceasefire effort or formal negotiation track.
