Lebanon called on the United States to continue its mediation efforts to complete the maritime border demarcation negotiations with Israel in the light of observations made by the Lebanese Technical Committee on the proposal of US mediator Amos Hochstein.
The Lebanese Technical Committee has met to discuss a proposal submitted by Hochstein, to divide the disputed area in a way that does not allow Lebanon to obtain the entire area that it considers its legitimate right, which amounts to 860 nautical kilometers on its southern border.
