Beirut-based political analyst Rania Khalek has sharply criticized the ongoing diplomatic talks between Lebanon and Israel mediated by the United States. Speaking to Qatar-based media outlet Al Jazeera, she claimed that the Lebanese government has no real control or bargaining power in the process and that most people do not expect any meaningful outcome from the discussions.
Khalek argued that Lebanon has effectively surrendered to U.S. influence, allowing Washington to separate the Lebanese front from the Iranian front. Although the Beirut government insists it is negotiating independently, she described the process as a 'theatrical performance.' She added that Lebanon is unable to secure any tangible benefits from the talks, noting that Israeli attacks continue daily without any ceasefire in place.
The analyst further stated that the situation has deepened polarization within Lebanon, displacing a large portion of the Shia population in the south. She also alleged that no Shia representatives were included in the current negotiation framework.
