Nabih Berri

Syrian Foreign Minister Asaad al-Shaibani's visit to Lebanon included a meeting with Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, a key ally of Hezbollah. The visit occurred amid US pressure on Syria to confront Hezbollah and reassured Beirut that Syria's new administration would not intervene militarily.

Officials from Lebanon’s Hezbollah-allied Amal Movement met with Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf in Tehran. The discussion focused on mutual interests and solidarity between Iran and Lebanon. Amal’s leader, Nabih Berri, criticized a proposed trilateral framework agreement between Lebanon, Israel, and the United States for failing to protect Lebanon’s rights.

Syria's foreign minister, Asaad al-Shibani, stated during a Beirut visit that Syria is open to meeting Hezbollah if required, according to Lebanon's state news agency. He met with Lebanese leaders including President Joseph Aoun and parliament speaker Nabih Berri, a Hezbollah ally. This visit occurred after U.S. President Donald Trump suggested Syrian forces might combat Hezbollah in Lebanon.

Lebanon's Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri criticized a U.S.-brokered agreement between Lebanon and Israel, stating it would not be implemented and emphasizing Iran-U.S. negotiations as the only path to Israeli withdrawal. He warned that separating Lebanon from the U.S.-Iran track would prolong Israeli occupation.

Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri stated that the US-brokered Israel framework agreement 'will not pass' and 'will not be implemented.'

The United States and Iran agreed to halt military strikes and resume talks in Doha to address tensions over the Strait of Hormuz. Meanwhile, Lebanon faces political divisions over a framework agreement with Israel, and Israeli forces reportedly destroyed Hezbollah tunnel infrastructure in southern Lebanon.

The United States and Iran will continue talks to end the Middle East war, with both sides pausing strikes after recent clashes. Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri rejected a US–Israel–Lebanon framework deal, calling it an agreement of 'dictates' that fails to protect Lebanon’s rights.

Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri states the trilateral framework agreement between Lebanon, Israel, and the United States will not pass, claiming it fails to protect Lebanon’s rights. Hezbollah dismissed the deal, warning it could lead to civil war.

Iran's Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri discussed regional developments, with Ghalibaf stating Iran remains committed to ending Israel’s war on Lebanon. Berri welcomed Iran’s efforts but accused the US of undermining Lebanese sovereignty. Both called for urgent meetings of a 'deconfliction' unit to address Israel’s invasion.

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi discussed Lebanon-related provisions of the US-Iran agreement with Lebanese leaders, including President Joseph Aoun and Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri. The discussions occur amid conflicting reports about the agreement's scope regarding Lebanon and its connection to Israel's actions in the country.

A Hezbollah official denied direct contact with US President Donald Trump, contradicting Trump's claims of communication with Hezbollah through 'highly placed representatives.' The official suggested Trump's statements may refer to indirect messaging via Lebanese parliament speaker Nabih Berri's adviser.

Israel's air force struck southern Lebanon, issuing evacuation warnings for nine villages including Anqoun, which housed displaced people. Six were killed, and strikes followed Hezbollah's rejection of a ceasefire agreement. Lebanon's Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri criticized the deal's terms, including 'pilot zones' and unilateral Hezbollah withdrawal.

Lebanese parliament speaker Nabih Berri informed the Trump administration through his adviser Ali Hamdan that Hezbollah is ready for a full and immediate ceasefire with Israel, rejecting a U.S. proposal for a partial ceasefire. U.S. officials doubt Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would agree to Hezbollah's terms, which include no demands for immediate Israeli withdrawal from southern Lebanon.

The U.S. effort to secure a Lebanon ceasefire has stalled as Israel expands its ground invasion and seeks permission for strikes on Hezbollah targets in Beirut. Secretary of State Marco Rubio recently engaged with Lebanese and Israeli leaders to push for a ceasefire, but Hezbollah's continued attacks and Israel's military escalation suggest the conflict may escalate further.

Israel and Lebanon resume U.S.-brokered talks in Washington, focusing on Hezbollah's disarmament, a key issue that has stalled previous agreements. The fragile ceasefire remains in place, but underlying tensions persist as Hezbollah opposes any contact with Israel and demands Israeli withdrawal from southern Lebanon, while Israel insists on Hezbollah disarming first.
