The Speaker of the Lebanese Parliament, Nabia Berri, said that keeping UNIFIL in southern Lebanon is the best option, but the United States and Israel are opposed to extending its mission.
Berry said he would meet with US Ambassador to the United Nations Mike Waltz to hear Washington's proposal. He also said he would meet separately with Saudi envoy Prince Khalid bin Salman.
On the dispute between President Joseph Aoun and the Free Patriotic Movement, Berry said he conveyed his position to those involved and called for constructive relations between the two sides.
