“Israel” puts pressure on exploration companies that have contracted with Lebanon: exploration is prohibited in the south before the dispute is resolved

The Al-Akhbar newspaper indicated, in an article that deals with the issue of indirect negotiations on the water borders with the “Israeli” enemy, that the latter has an interest that goes beyond economic profit, pushing him to move this file quickly. .

The newspaper added, according to the Hebrew media leaks, that it appears that “Israel” has made the decision to work to activate further pressure and intimidation to push Lebanon to withdraw from its encroaching rights, as mentioned in recent rounds of negotiations. . The Israeli newspaper “Haaretz” reported an indirect threat to Lebanon. The problem in Lebanon is that the deadlock in negotiations delays the start of gas exploration operations, through companies from France, Italy and Russia that have signed contracts with the Lebanese side, and these companies will not start exploration while the border dispute remains unresolved, and this is also the message that came from Israel itself to the three companies. “

In the same context, the newspaper pointed out that “Israel” is working, and of course the United States behind it, to exert pressure through a group of French “Total”, Italian “Eni” and Russian “Novatek” companies, considering that this threatening detour is on the part of “Israel”. “It is worth following up with these companies to see if Lebanon has given in to the pressure, as stated by Tel Aviv, through its media, and to ask about their level of compliance and their level, if it really happened.
