Bassil sets conditions for peace with Israel and calls for exclusive state control of weapons

Monte Carlo Doualiya relied on a direct interview with Bassil and, alongside peace and the rejection of the framework agreement, covered Hezbollah's weapons, the army's deployment in the south and the possibility of a US-Iranian war; Lebanon 24 limited itself to the two headline points (conditions for peace and exclusive state control of weapons) without further detail; MTV Lebanon expanded on internal files such as the relationship with Hezbollah, the rejection of the ceasefire agreement's contents, and addressing the weapons issue through internal understanding.

• مونت كارلو الدولية Presented the remarks in the context of an interview with it, led with the headline "we ultimately want peace with Israel... but peace has its conditions", and covered the rejection of the framework agreement, Hezbollah's weapons file, the army's deployment in the south and the possibility of a renewed US-Iran war.
• Lebanon 24 Focused on the conditions for peace with Israel and the demand for exclusive state control of weapons, noting that the remarks come within the internal debate over weapons and relations with Israel, without additional details on the position or the circumstances of its announcement.
• MTV Lebanon Highlighted that the relationship with Hezbollah is built on assessing Lebanese interest, the rejection of dragging Lebanon into the wars of others, and exclusive state control of weapons and decisions; it added the rejection of the ceasefire agreement's contents for not securing Lebanon's rights, and that addressing Hezbollah's weapons is through internal understanding away from civil war or reliance on outside parties.
