I will ensure that Israeli forces withdraw from Lebanese territory until the last inch.
The state alone must hold authority over its territory and the decision of war and peace, with the army and legitimate security forces solely responsible for public safety. There is no state with two armies, and no state with two decisions.
Lebanon stands alongside Saudi Arabia, in whatever measures it deems appropriate to defend itself and protect its people, security and sovereignty.
