U.S. envoy Tom Barrack has received from Lebanon a “serious proposal” calling for a “gradual” solution for the thorny issue of Hezbollah’s arms, media reports said on Thursday.

“Lebanon has demanded a halt to all forms of Israeli attacks, Israel’s withdrawal from two points as a first step from the points it occupies in south Lebanon, in return for the Lebanese state finalizing the file of the monopolization of arms over six months. The proposal also includes other detailed points,” the reports said.

“Pending the Israeli response to this proposal, with which Barrack dealt positively, negotiations are still ongoing, amid harmony over Lebanon’s stance among the president, the speaker, the prime minister and the concerned political forces,” the reports added.
