As Israel continues its extensive attacks on Lebanon, international efforts to expand the terms of the ceasefire agreement between the Islamic Republic and the United States to Lebanon have intensified.
On Thursday, April 20, British Foreign Secretary Ayoub Cooper emphasized at a press conference that for the sustainability of the ceasefire and the establishment of peace in the Middle East, the two-week ceasefire agreement between the Islamic Republic and Washington must also include Lebanon.
Mao Ming, spokesperson for the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, also called for the ceasefire to include Lebanon during a press conference on the same day.
Jean-Noël Barrot, French Foreign Minister, after a phone conversation between Macron and Mardakian, told reporters that given the fragility of the ceasefire between Tehran and Washington, Lebanon should be added to the ceasefire and peace plan.
The Spanish government also called for an immediate end to Israel's attacks on Lebanon and stated that Lebanon is part of the ceasefire agreement, which must be implemented.
