طَلَبَ رَئِيسُ الْحُكُومَةِ اللُّبْنَانِيَّةِ نَوَّافُ سَلَّامٍ خُطُوَاتٍ عَمَلِيَّةً لِتَنْفِيذِ الِاتِّفَاقِ الْإِطَارِيِّ بَيْنَ لُبْنَانَ وَإِسْرَائِيلَ. وَجَاءَ طَلَبُهُ خِلَالَ لِقَاءٍ مَعَ وَزِيرِ الْخَارِجِيَّةِ الْأَمِيرِكِيِّ مَارْكُو رُوبْيُو فِي وَاشِنْطُنَ، يَوْمَ الِاثْنَيْنِ، ٢٨ سِبْتَمْبَرَ ٢٠٢٦.

وَقَالَ سَلَّامٌ إِنَّ الْمَطْلُوبَ هُوَ الِانْتِقَالُ مِنَ الِاتِّفَاقِ إِلَى تَطْبِيقِهِ، وَإِظْهَارُ نَتَائِجَ مَلْمُوسَةٍ عَلَى الْأَرْضِ. وَطَلَبَ أَيْضًا وَضْعَ جَدْوَلٍ زَمَنِيٍّ وَاضِحٍ لِتَنْفِيذِهِ، وَإِنْشَاءَ طَرِيقَةٍ لِلْمُتَابَعَةِ وَالْتَّحَقُّقِ مِنَ الِالْتِزَامِ بِبُنُودِهِ.

وَيَهْدِفُ الِاتِّفَاقُ، الَّذِي وُقِّعَ فِي يُونْيُو بِوَسَاطَةٍ أَمِيرِكِيَّةٍ، إِلَى سَحْبِ الْقُوَّاتِ الْإِسْرَائِيلِيَّةِ تَدْرِيجِيًّا مِنْ لُبْنَانَ، وَنَشْرِ الْجَيْشِ اللُّبْنَانِيِّ فِي الْجَنُوبِ. وَيَتَضَمَّنُ أَيْضًا جَعْلَ السِّلَاحِ تَحْتَ سُلْطَةِ الدَّوْلَةِ فِي أَرْجَاءِ الْبِلَادِ. وَلَكِنَّ تَنْفِيذَ بَعْضِ بُنُودِ الِاتِّفَاقِ لَمْ يَتَقَدَّمْ كَمَا كَانَ مُتَوَقَّعًا.

وَأَكَّدَ سَلَّامٌ أَنَّ تَقَدُّمَ الْعَمَلِ بِالِاتِّفَاقِ يَجِبُ أَنْ يَكُونَ مُتَبَادَلًا وَمُتَدَرِّجًا. وَيَعْنِي ذٰلِكَ أَنَّ الْأَطْرَافَ تَنْفِذُ الِالْتِزَامَاتِ عَلَى مَرَاحِلَ، لَا مِنْ جَانِبٍ وَاحِدٍ فَقَطْ. كَمَا دَعَا إِلَى دَعْمِ الْجَيْشِ اللُّبْنَانِيِّ، وَهُوَ مَسْؤُولٌ عَنْ تَعْزِيزِ وُجُودِ الدَّوْلَةِ فِي الْجَنُوبِ. وَلَمْ يُعْلَنِ اللِّقَاءُ عَنْ تَغْيِيرٍ جَدِيدٍ فِي بُنُودِ الِاتِّفَاقِ؛ بَلْ رَكَّزَ عَلَى كَيْفِيَّةِ تَطْبِيقِهَا. وَتُرْتَبَطُ هٰذِهِ الْمَطَالِبُ بِسِيَادَةِ لُبْنَانَ وَعَوْدَةِ الْقُوَّاتِ وَالْمُوَاطِنِينَ إِلَى مَنَاطِقِهِمْ.

Lebanon Calls for Practical Steps to Implement Its Framework Agreement with Israel

Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam called for practical steps to implement the framework agreement between Lebanon and Israel. He made the request during a meeting with US Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Washington on Monday, September 28, 2026.

Salam said the aim is to move from the agreement to its implementation and produce concrete results on the ground. He also called for a clear timetable and a way to monitor and verify whether its terms are being followed.

The agreement, signed in June with US mediation, aims for the gradual withdrawal of Israeli forces from Lebanon and the deployment of the Lebanese army in the south. It also calls for weapons to be under state authority throughout the country. However, some parts of the agreement have not advanced as expected.

Salam stressed that progress should be mutual and gradual: the parties should carry out their commitments in stages, rather than one side acting alone. He also called for support for the Lebanese army, which is responsible for strengthening the state’s presence in the south. The meeting did not announce new terms for the agreement; it focused on how to implement them. These requests are linked to Lebanon’s sovereignty and the return of forces and residents to their areas.
