Le Drian’s fruitless trip to Beirut/ France’s attempt to infiltrate important cases in the region through Lebanon’s gate

– International News – Tasnim news agency, while the Lebanese were expecting the visit of Jean-Yves Le Drian, the special representative of the French President, to Beirut, which took place on Wednesday last week. , in the framework of handling the Lebanese presidential case after a break of several months, but the atmosphere of this French diplomat’s trip showed that he has other goals.

On this basis, many questions are raised about the agenda of Le Drian’s trip to Lebanon during this period. In particular, he did not have anything new to say about the Lebanese presidential case in his meeting with the Lebanese officials and he tried to move the discussion towards the developments in the south and the ongoing conflicts between the Lebanese resistance and the army of the occupying regime. This issue changed all the priorities and it became clear that the hope of the Lebanese to create an opening in the Lebanese presidential case with the arrival of Le Drian is in vain. Informed Lebanese sources in this regard announced that the special representative of the French President, whose agenda Since his appointment to this position, he has been dealing with the Lebanese presidential case, he did not bring anything new to Beirut and only made a series of repeated statements in this context and emphasized the need to quickly elect a president.

these sources reported, Le Drian’s trip to Beirut in this situation and while the Gaza war is on the threshold of two months, in It is the framework of France’s efforts to regain its influence in the region, which obviously starts from the Lebanese gate. In particular, Paris has not had any intervention in Lebanon or other cases in the region during the recent period, and for this reason, it is trying to exploit the case of the Lebanese presidency to restore its influence in the region, including the case of the Gaza war.

Jean Yves In his meeting with the Lebanese authorities, Le Drian discussed more about Resolution 1701, and of course he did not mention that the Zionists are repeatedly violating this resolution; Rather, he wanted to scare the Lebanese from the consequences of the conflicts in southern Lebanon and encourage them to retreat in the face of the aggression of the Zionist regime.

Also, one of the other axes of Le Drian’s trip to Beirut was talking about the extension of the command of “Joseph Aoun” in the command of the Lebanese Army. The fact that the French representative did not pay much attention to the Lebanese presidential case during his trip to Beirut raises questions about whether Paris intends to leave this case to Doha?

The available information shows that after the trip New Jean-Yves Le Drian to Beirut, nothing new happened in the Lebanese presidential case, and no changes have been made in the positions of the relevant parties. In the meantime, some sources reported that the chance of Suleiman Franjieh, the head of Al-Murda movement and the candidate supported by Hezbollah, to reach the position of the Lebanese president is more than other candidates. According to this report, the relevant Lebanese parties have no flexibility They do not show their positions on the issue of electing the president, and they have even become stricter in adhering to their positions. Some believe that the results of the Gaza war can also affect the Lebanese presidential case; So that the performance of the resistance in defending Lebanon against the aggression of the Zionist enemy can facilitate the election of Suleiman Farnijeh as the candidate supported by Hezbollah.

In any case, the evidence shows that the work of the French in the Lebanese presidential case is almost finished. And they themselves do not want to continue working in this field; Because they know they will not succeed. Accordingly, all attention is now focused on the Qatari side, and recently a representative from Doha traveled to Beirut for this purpose. If a result is reached and Doha can bring the viewpoints of different Lebanese parties together, but in any case, the ball is now in the court of the Lebanese and until they make an independent effort to find a solution to elect a president, no one can help Lebanon. No matter how long the presidential vacuum lasts in this country.
