Trump Says He Hopes Lebanon Can Be Stabilized After Iran Deal

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday that he hopes the situation in Lebanon can be resolved, speaking after the signing of an agreement between the United States and Iran earlier in the day. In his remarks, Trump said the next step requires engagement with Hezbollah.

The comments came as part of his response to the new U.S.-Iran understanding, which had been signed that morning. The article does not detail the contents of the agreement, but it frames Trump’s Lebanon comments as a direct follow-up to it.

Trump’s statement focused on Lebanon’s security and political situation, and on the role of Hezbollah in any future arrangement. He did not announce any specific measures or timeline, only expressing hope that a solution could be found.

The report also notes related coverage elsewhere on the site about the same agreement, including claims that Trump, Vice President JD Vance and Calibaf signed a memorandum of understanding, and a separate Trump remark that ships were passing safely through the Strait of Hormuz. No further official response from Lebanon or Hezbollah is included in this item.
