๐บ๐ธ๐ฎ๐ฑ๐ฑ๐ง๐ โ According to the Lebanese newspaper Nidaa Al Watan, the third preparatory meeting between Lebanon and Israel has been delayed from this week to next week, partly due to U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubioโs scheduled visit to the Vatican to meet Pope Leo XIV, followed by talks with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni. โถ๏ธRubio, who was assigned by President Donald Trump to oversee the negotiations, is considered a key figure in the process, contributing to the postponement. โถ๏ธDuring a White House briefing, Rubio stated that the Lebanese people are โvictims of Hezbollah,โ accusing the group of obstructing negotiations between Lebanon and Israel while stressing that a future peace agreement between the two countries remains achievable.
