U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken stated that he is "committed to working with the upcoming Trump administration on a ceasefire in Gaza and other issues."
Blinken announced that a ceasefire agreement in Lebanon is in its final stages. He highlighted that reaching a ceasefire agreement in Lebanon is the result of intense diplomatic efforts by the United States and partners such as France.
The White House previously revealed that a ceasefire between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon is "imminent," but discussions are still ongoing.
This statement comes amid complex geopolitical tensions in the region, where the U.S. plays a significant role in mediating conflicts and promoting peace initiatives.
