US: Hezbollah must be disarmed immediately.
According to Al Jazeera, the United States is one of the main supporters of the Zionist regime in its atrocities in the region. Therefore, it is not surprising that Washington calls for confronting the axis of resistance in the region.
Accordingly, Morgan Ortagus, the US special envoy, announced at the end of her 3-day visit to Beirut: Hezbollah and other armed movements in Lebanon must disarm as soon as possible.
She emphasized: This task is the responsibility of the Lebanese army and Washington will continue its diplomatic pressure for the full implementation of international resolutions.
In an interview with the Lebanese LBCI television channel at the end of her 3-day visit to Beirut, Ortagus said: It is quite clear that Hezbollah must be disarmed. It is also clear that Israel will not allow armed groups to fire at them from Lebanese soil. This is a position that we understand and are in line with.
During this visit, she met with senior Lebanese officials, including President Joseph Aoun, Prime Minister Nawaf Salam and Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, as well as with other Lebanese officials and political representatives.
Ortagus stressed that Washington expects the Lebanese government to fully implement the provisions of the ceasefire, including the disarmament of Hezbollah and all militia groups active in the country.
In response to a reporter’s question about the timing of this action, she said: “The sooner the better. We call for the immediate implementation of these commitments.”
Ortagus’s comments come as tensions continue on Lebanon’s southern border with the occupied territories.
