Salam stresses need to spare Lebanon any involvement in Israel-Iran war

Prime Minister Nawaf Salam on Monday underscored the need to “prevent Lebanon's entanglement in any way in the ongoing war” between Israel and Iran.

Speaking during a cabinet session, Salam said any such involvement would lead to “repercussions that we have nothing to do with.”

Salam also noted that he has asked Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas to put into effect the latest Lebanese-Palestinian resolutions regarding Palestinian weapons in Lebanon, while clarifying that an official timetable for arms handover is yet to be decided.
