US Envoy Amos Hochstein visited MP Fouad Makhzoumi's residence on Tuesday in the presence of Lebanese MPs from different parliamentary blocs. He stressed “the need for Lebanon and for the future President to commit to the full implementation of the Taif Agreement and to the implementation of the reforms necessary for the country's recovery.”
During the meeting, they discussed the issue of the ceasefire concluded on November 27 to put an end to hostilities between Hezbollah and Israel, and the withdrawal of Israeli forces.
Hochstein, who has been in Beirut since Monday morning, chaired a meeting of the ceasefire monitoring committee at the headquarters of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) in Naqoura.
He also held talks with General Joseph Aoun before continuing his tour to Ain el-Tineh, where he was awaited by Speaker of Parliament Nabih Berri. He then met caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati at the Grand Serail.
