A senior Hezbollah official, Wafiq Safa, stated on Monday that the group will not recognize any agreements resulting from upcoming Lebanon-Israel talks in the United States. These talks, scheduled to take place in Washington D.C., mark the first direct meeting between Lebanese and Israeli envoys in decades. Safa emphasized Hezbollah's opposition to the negotiations, asserting they are not bound by any outcomes. The Lebanese government seeks to broker a ceasefire in the ongoing Israel-Hezbollah war through these U.S.-mediated discussions. Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu aims for Hezbollah's disarmament and a potential peace agreement with Lebanon, though his spokesperson denied any ceasefire plans.
