Robert Malley: “We are seeking a return to the JCPOA, but I want to make it clear, as I sit today, the odds of a successful negotiation…”

Lebanon is too weak, too vulnerable, too susceptible to destabilization to afford grand aspirations.

How do we get to this broader problem of the Middle East? We are going to have to do what we are doing to try to push back, but we have to get engaged in diplomacy.

This is far too dangerous to continue. We need to preserve the stability.

What happens in Lebanon will quickly spread to Syria, and vice versa.
