United States envoy Amos Hochstein says Washington is looking to end the war in Lebanon “as soon as possible”, stressing that the US is seeking a lasting resolution to the crisis without providing many details about the diplomatic push.
After holding talks in Beirut on Monday with Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri, Hochstein suggested that ceasefire efforts are focused on the implementation of a United Nations Security Council resolution that ended the last war between Hezbollah and Israel in 2006.
