Middle East: An informed political source said that it is inevitable to adopt the correlation between the demarcation of maritime and land borders, and treat it as the basis for launching negotiations between Lebanon and Israel under the auspices of the United Nations and with American mediation, to reach an agreement that resolves the dispute in the disputed maritime region between the two countries. He assured “Al-Sharq al-Awsat” that he supports the position of the President of Parliament, Nabih Berri, in this regard, when he announced the framework agreement to start negotiations on October 14 at the headquarters of the International Forces of UNIFIL in Naqoura.

The political source attributed the reason to the existing disagreement between Lebanon and Israel over the size of the disputed maritime area, and believed that a solution to this conflict would not be achieved unless there was an agreement that the demarcation of the maritime borders would start from land borders in Ras al-Naqoura. Especially since the reason for determining the maritime zone is related to the fact that Lebanon proposes that the maritime demarcation be carried out from the land demarcation line, in exchange for Israel adhering to another line.

The same source revealed that the dispute between Lebanon and Israel over the land departure point for the demarcation of maritime borders led to the ongoing dispute over the determination of an area of ​​860 square kilometers, which is still the subject of dispute in the marine area. which delays the exploration of gas from Lebanon, and said that the negotiations will not be based on the line that was was drawn up by the American mediator, Frederick Hof, who was withdrawn from circulation when the former United States ambassador to Lebanon David Satterfield and the current ambassador to Turkey tried to mediate a solution to the maritime dispute.

He noted that the mission of the new US mediator, the Under Secretary of State for Near East Affairs, David Schenker, will start from scratch as soon as the indirect negotiations begin, and asked: will he come to convince the two countries after a long time and will he respond in Your agreement to the line that you will draw and that is supposed to be named after you? Or will you have to cut back on time while you wait for the US presidential election? Although Iran is not in the process of opposing US mediation.

The political source confirmed that Berri did not give the green light to start negotiations by announcing the political contents of the framework agreement, except after he agreed with his ally, “Hezbollah,” the mechanism he proposed in this regard, which received the approval of the president. of the Republic, General Michel Aoun, and said that the lack of objection from his ally allowed him to block the way for those who seek to overcome him in the Shiite arena, considering that the negotiations to recover Lebanese wealth at sea will have the support of the most of the main parties, either in opposition or in loyalty.
