01 · THE DISPATCH

A planned phone call between U.S. President Donald Trump and Lebanese President Joseph Aoun has been reported, set against the backdrop of the recently announced agreement between Israel and Lebanon. The report, from the source, did not specify a timing or agenda for the call.

The development follows a series of high-level diplomatic contacts between Washington and Beirut. As The Zioneer previously reported, President Aoun spoke with Iranian Foreign Minister Araghchi on June 15 after the US-Iran MOU announcement, and Trump had said on June 17 that both Aoun and Prime Minister Netanyahu would visit the U.S. soon. The call also comes amid ongoing military talks between Israel and Lebanon in Washington, which have reportedly shown some progress in recent days.

The source did not provide further details on the content or status of the expected conversation. The call has not yet been officially confirmed by the White House or the Lebanese presidency.
