Lebanese President Michel Aoun stressed on Thursday the importance of continuing the border demarcation negotiations with Israel and what he described as honest and fair mediation by the US. The American delegation is headed by Assistant Secretary of State for Political Affairs David Hill.
Aoun pointed out that he is entrusted with Lebanon s sovereignty, rights and interests and will not overlook them while working to spare the country from the negative repercussions that may arise from any careless attitude. All possible efforts should be made to ensure consensus and not disagreement among the Lebanese people over the demarcation of the border with Israel.
