Lebanon and the US are &#8220;exchanging ideas&#8221; on a proposal that would ultimately lead to the disarmament of Hezbollah and the transfer of all its weapons to the control of the Lebanese state.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\"><strong>Hezbollah rejects the American plan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">Beirut is also demanding that Israel halt its daily attacks on the country and withdraw from five strategic points it occupies in southern Lebanon.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">Hezbollah&#8217;s Secretary-General Naim Qassem accused Barrack of encouraging the Lebanese army to disarm the group and incite a civil war.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">Qassem also adopted a firm stance on the issue of weapons, arguing that in Hezbollah&#8217;s absence, Israel would expand its territorial control in parts of Lebanon.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">&#8220;We will not surrender or give in to Israel; Israel will not be able to take our weapons from us,&#8221; Qassem said in a video address at a memorial for a senior Hezbollah commander killed in last year&#8217;s war with Israel.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\"><strong>Barrack blackmails Lebanon and Hezbollah through the new HTS administration<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">During his previous visit, Barrack said he welcomed Lebanon&#8217;s response to the US plan for Hezbollah&#8217;s disarmament and stressed that Lebanon should not be &#8220;left behind&#8221; in the &#8220;rapidly changing region.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">In response to the US proposal, Lebanese officials submitted a seven-page document demanding Israel&#8217;s complete withdrawal from disputed territories, including the Shebaa Farms, and reaffirming state control over all weapons.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">The government also pledged that Hezbollah&#8217;s weapons in Southern Lebanon would be destroyed.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">In an <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\" data-darkreader-inline-color=\"\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thenationalnews.com\/news\/mena\/2025\/07\/21\/us-envoy-tom-barrack-in-beirut-for-hezbollah-disarmament-talks\/\" data-darkreader-inline-color=\"\">interview<\/a><\/span> with\u00a0<em>The National<\/em>, Barrack said that time is of the essence. &#8220;Honestly, I think they will say, &#8216;the world will pass us by.&#8217; Why? On one side there is Israel, on the other there is Iran, and now Syria is also emerging so quickly that if Lebanon does not act, it will become\u00a0<em>Bilad al-Sham<\/em>\u00a0again,&#8221; he said, using the historical name for the &#8220;Greater Syria&#8221; region.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">This comment by Barrack was interpreted as Lebanon being at risk of being absorbed into Greater Syria, but the envoy later clarified that he only intended to praise &#8220;Syria&#8217;s impressive steps.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">&#8220;I can guarantee that the Syrian leaders only want coexistence and mutual prosperity with Lebanon, and the US is committed to supporting this relationship between two equal and sovereign neighboring countries living in peace and prosperity,&#8221; Barrack said.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\"><strong>Barrack says there is no \u2018Plan B\u2019 besides the current Damascus administration<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">Meanwhile, Barrack reiterated Washington&#8217;s support for the new government in Syria, stating there is no &#8220;Plan B&#8221; other than cooperating with the current authorities to unite the country.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">Speaking to the Associated Press in Beirut, Barrack took a critical stance on Israel&#8217;s recent intervention in Syria, <span style=\"color: #0000ff;\" data-darkreader-inline-color=\"\"><a style=\"color: #0000ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lmtonline.com\/news\/world\/article\/us-envoy-doubles-down-on-support-for-syria-s-20778027.php\" data-darkreader-inline-color=\"\">saying<\/a><\/span> its timing was wrong and complicated efforts for regional stability.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">Barrack told the Associated Press that the &#8220;murders, acts of revenge, and massacres committed by both sides&#8221; are &#8220;unacceptable,&#8221; but argued that &#8220;Syria&#8217;s current government, as a new government with very few resources to solve a wide variety of problems, is doing its best.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">Regarding Israel&#8217;s attacks on Syria, Barrack said, &#8220;The US was not consulted on this matter, did not participate in this decision, and the US has no responsibility for matters that Israel deems necessary for its own defense.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">The envoy added that Israel&#8217;s intervention &#8220;created another very confusing chapter&#8221; and &#8220;happened at a very bad time.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">Barrack noted that when the recent clashes erupted, Israel&#8217;s view was that southern Damascus was a &#8220;suspicious&#8221; area and that any military developments there should be discussed and agreed upon with them. &#8220;The new government [in Syria] was not exactly of this view,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">The envoy also stated that the ceasefire declared between Syria and Israel on Saturday was a limited agreement that only addressed the conflict in Suwayda. He underlined that the agreement did not address broader issues between the two countries, including Israel&#8217;s claim that the area south of Damascus should be a demilitarized zone.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\"><strong>According to the envoy, Israel favors a divided Syria<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">In talks leading to a peace agreement, Barrack said that &#8220;both sides did their best to reach an agreement on specific issues related to the movement of Syrian forces and equipment from Damascus to Suwayda.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">Stating that &#8220;whether or not to accept Israel&#8217;s intervention in a sovereign state is a separate issue,&#8221; Barrack suggested that Israel would prefer Syria to be fragmented and divided rather than controlled by a strong central state.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">Barrack noted that strong nation-states, especially Arab states, are seen as a threat to Israel. &#8220;[But in Syria] I think all minority communities are smart enough to say that we will be better off together, in a central structure,&#8221; he said.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\"><strong>\u2018A Syria-T\u00fcrkiye defense agreement is a matter for those countries\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">When asked whether the violence in Suwayda had deepened distrust in the new government in Damascus and what would become of the SDF agreement, Barrack said he did not think the incidents in Suwayda would derail these talks and that progress could be made &#8220;in the coming weeks.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">Barrack had met with Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) leader Mazloum Abdi over the weekend.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">When reminded that T\u00fcrkiye had offered to provide defense assistance to Syria, Barrack appeared to give a green light to a possible Damascus-Ankara agreement.<\/p>\n<p data-spacing=\"double\">Barrack said the US has &#8220;no position&#8221; on the possibility of a defense agreement between Syria and T\u00fcrkiye, adding, &#8220;It is not the job or in the interest of the US to tell neighboring countries what they should do to each other.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>US special envoy for Syria, Tom Barrack, traveled to Beirut to meet with officials regarding Hezbollah.
