(Worthy News) – Lebanon on Monday received an updated draft of a US-brokered maritime agreement with Israel that satisfies its previous concerns and could imminently lead to a “historic deal,” Beirut’s top negotiator told Reuters.
“If everything goes well, Amos Hochstein’s efforts could imminently lead to a historic deal,” Bou Saab told the news agency, referring to the Biden administration’s energy envoy who has led the negotiations between Jerusalem and Beirut for the past 15 months.
There was no immediate word from Israel on whether it had also received the proposal late Monday night. [ Source: Times of Israel (Read More…) ]
