How Good Is Australia And France Siding With Terrorists
JD Vance, who will represent the US in talks with Iran in Pakistan this weekend, blamed a “legitimate misunderstanding”. “I think the Iranians thought that the ceasefire included Lebanon and it just didn’t,” he said. “We never made that promise.” But he said he had been told Israel would “check themselves a little bit in Lebanon”. “That’s not because that is part of the ceasefire. I think that’s the Israelis trying to set us up for success,” he said.
Australia is among US allies calling for Lebanon’s inclusion in the ceasefire. French President Emmanuel Macron criticised Israel’s “indiscriminate strikes” in Lebanon and said Lebanon must be “fully covered” by the ceasefire.
