Washington, DC – US President Donald Trump affirmed that Israel will not resume bombing Lebanon, emphasizing that Washington intervened directly to prevent any new attacks.
This comes as part of efforts to solidify the ongoing ceasefire in the region.
In statements published on his platform, Trump explained that the United States “prevented Israel
from carrying out any new bombing operations against Lebanon.”
He added that this decision is part of efforts to contain the escalation and support regional stability.
Establishing a ceasefire
Trump indicated that the US move aims to ensure the continuation of the ceasefire between Lebanon and Israel
and prevent any return to hostilities, especially given international efforts
to create the conditions for broader negotiations that could lead to a lasting agreement.
He affirmed that Washington will continue to work separately with Lebanon to address outstanding security issues,
referring to the issue of Hezbollah’s weapons, which he described as part of the existing challenges.
Controversial statements about “nuclear dust”
In a related development, Trump sparked controversy with remarks about what he called “nuclear dust.”
He indicated that the United States would deal with the consequences of
any military operations related to this issue,
without providing details or supporting evidence for these claims.
These statements come amid ongoing tensions between Washington and Tehran.
This is occurring against the backdrop of attempts to reshape the security landscape in the region.
Continued sanctions against Iran
Regarding Iran, Trump affirmed that the naval blockade would remain in place,
despite Tehran’s announcement that the Strait of Hormuz was open to shipping.
He clarified that this measure would continue until a comprehensive agreement is reached with the Iranian side.
He emphasized that his country seeks a comprehensive agreement that will end tensions.
However, he stressed the importance of maintaining current leverage,
including naval restrictions, to ensure the achievement of its strategic objectives in the region.
