Hezbollah’s Deputy Secretary-General Sheikh Naim Qassem has stated that the framework agreement with Israel is tantamount to legitimising Israel’s presence in Lebanon and represents a surrender of national sovereignty. According to Arab media reports from Beirut, Qassem warned that the deal could lead to the annexation of Lebanese territories by Israel.

He described conditioning an Israeli withdrawal from Lebanon on the disarmament of resistance groups as “dangerous.” Qassem also asserted that after a memorandum of understanding between the US and Iran, the tripartite framework agreement holds no standing.
