 Macron Calls For Full Israeli Withdrawal From Lebanon, ‘state Monopoly’ On Arms During Beirut Visit

The French president said Paris will soon host an international conference on the reconstruction of infrastructure ravaged by Israel’s war

French President Emmanuel Macron visited Lebanon’s capital, Beirut, on 17 January and held talks with officials on the ceasefire agreement that ended over a year of fighting between Israel and Hezbollah, as well as reconstruction efforts to rebuild infrastructure destroyed by Tel Aviv.

It was Macron’s first visit to the country in more than four years.

“There have been results … but they must be accelerated and long-lasting. There needs to be complete withdrawal of Israeli forces, and the Lebanese army must hold total monopoly of any weapons,” Macron said during a joint press conference after a meeting with Lebanon’s President Joseph Aoun.

The French president added that Paris would host a conference “for the reconstruction of Lebanon” in the coming weeks.

“The international community must prepare for massive support to the reconstruction of infrastructure,” he went on to say.
