President Joseph Aoun’s contacts and the army’s weapons monopolization plan “necessitated Arab and international positivity toward the proposed settlement, which reached the extent of lauding President Aoun’s wisdom in managing the current period and preserving Lebanese domestic stability,” a media report said.

“Washington in specific has shown keenness on preventing chaos in Lebanon and saw in Aoun’s proposal an excellent way to resolve the conflict between the Israeli enemy and Lebanon, as long as the objective is monopolizing arms and ending wars,” ad-Diyar newspaper reported on Wednesday.
