Hezbollah has been trying to 'liberate Lebanon' for 40 years unsuccessfully – They should let us give it a try for one year by surrendering their weapons
Lebanese Foreign Minister Youssef Rajji stated in a February 27, 2025, appearance on MTV (Lebanon) that military pressure has not helped Lebanon liberate itself from Israeli occupation, and the country must turn to the international community for assistance.
He stated that in order to achieve this, Lebanon must fully implement UN Resolution 1701, which includes disarming Hezbollah.
Rajji added that Hezbollah’s 40 years of attempting to liberate Lebanon have been unsuccessful, and he proposed that they give Lebanon one year to try to achieve this goal by surrendering their weapons for a year.
He stressed that Resolution 1701 must be implemented throughout the entire country.
