“No Hezbollah In Government…” Lebanon President Distances Himself From Trump Envoy’s “Red Line”
US Deputy Special Envoy Morgan Ortagus emphasized that Hezbollah’s involvement in Lebanon’s government is a “red line” for the Trump administration. She expressed gratitude to Israel for defeating Hezbollah and highlighted US efforts to prevent Iran from funding terror proxies. Ortagus also affirmed the US commitment to preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons. Amid Hezbollah’s political influence in Lebanon, Ortagus’s remarks come as Lebanon’s PM-designate faces difficulties forming a government, with ongoing tensions over the ceasefire agreement and Hezbollah’s military presence. n18oc_crux
