Cabinet votes: Hezbollah disarmament in sight as Lebanon adopts US-brokered plan

The Lebanese Cabinet has voted on a proposal presented by U.S. Envoy Tom Barrack as part of international efforts to stabilize Lebanon and restore state authority. Below are the main goals outlined in the document:

1. Lebanon implements the National Accord Document known as the Taif Agreement, the Lebanese Constitution, and UNSC resolutions, foremost among them UNSCR 1701 (2006), and takes the necessary steps to fully extend its sovereignty over all Lebanese territory, with the aim of strengthening the role of legitimate institutions, consolidating the exclusive authority of the state to make decisions of war and peace, and ensuring that the possession of weapons is solely in the hands of the state throughout all Lebanese territory.

2. Ensure the sustainability of the cessation of hostilities, including all land, air, and sea violations through structured steps leading to a guaranteed, permanent, and comprehensive solution.

3. Phase out the armed presence of all non-state actors, including Hezbollah, across all of Lebanon, including south and north of the Litani River, with appropriate support to the Lebanese Army (LAF) and the Internal Security Forces (ISF).

4. Deploy LAF forces to border regions and key internal zones with appropriate support to the LAF and the ISF.

5. Israel's withdrawal from the "five points," as well as the resolution of border and prisoners' issues diplomatically, through indirect negotiations.

6. The return of the civilians of border villages and towns to their homes and properties.

7. Ensure Israeli withdrawal from Lebanese territory and cease all hostilities, including land, air, and sea violations.

8. Permanent visible demarcation of the international border between Lebanon and Israel.

9. Permanent delineation and demarcation of the border between Lebanon and Syria.

10. Hold an economic conference in which the United States, France, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and other friends of Lebanon participate in support of the Lebanese economy, reconstruction, and to implement President Trump's vision for the return of Lebanon as a prosperous and viable country.

11. Additional international support for the Lebanese security agencies, namely LAF, with the proper military means to implement the terms of the proposal in order to ensure Lebanon's protection.
