Unreasonable to expect Lebanon to disarm Hezbollah amid bombings, France says

PARIS: It would be unreasonable ​to expect Lebanon’s government to disarm Iran-backed Hezbollah while the country is being ‌bombed ‌by ​Israel, ‌France’s ⁠special envoy ​for Lebanon ⁠said on Wednesday, adding that only a negotiation would resolve ⁠the crisis.“Israel ‌occupied Lebanon ‌for ​a ‌very long ‌time and failed to eradicate Hezbollah’s military capacity. ‌Therefore, they cannot now ask the Lebanese ⁠government ⁠to do that job in three days under bombardment,” Jean-Yves Le Drian told France Info ​radio.
