France throws weight behind Israel-Lebanon ceasefire

France throws weight behind Israel-Lebanon ceasefire President Emmanuel Macron said on Thursday that France backs the ceasefire in Lebanon after the announcement of an agreement in Washington. The French head of state told reporters on a visit to Montenegro: "We support the ceasefire between Lebanon and Israel and everything that helps restore peace, combat terrorist activities, and fully establish Lebanon's sovereignty and territorial integrity. "France is, of course, as we have always been, available to move forward along this path. A coordination mechanism has been put in place where the United States and France are working together," he added. "If the ceasefire is serious, this is the mechanism that must be reactivated, so that we can follow up and verify its implementation."
