U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham has weighed in on the fragile Lebanon ceasefire, stating that any lasting peace must include the disarmament of Hezbollah. In a social media post, Graham declared that "Hezbollah and peace don’t fit in the same sentence," framing the group as a major terrorist organization. His comments add a significant U.S. political voice to the debate over the terms of the U.S.-brokered truce, which Hezbollah's leadership has already rejected. This public demand underscores the deep political divisions that threaten to undermine the ceasefire before it can take full effect.
