Israeli ambassador hails 'wonderful exchange' following talks with Lebanon

Israeli Ambassador Yechiel Leiter hailed the "wonderful exchange" during direct peace talks with Lebanon in Washington on Tuesday, saying the two countries were "on the same side."

"We enjoyed it together. We had a wonderful exchange of over two hours," Leiter told reporters following the talks.

"We discovered today that we're on the same side," he said, adding: "We are both united in liberating Lebanon from (an) occupation power dominated by Iran called Hezbollah."
