François Picard is pleased to welcome Jad Shahrour, communications manager at the Samir Kassir Foundation. Lebanon is at a geopolitical crossroads, where sovereignty, regional rivalries and international diplomacy collide. Joining us from Beirut amid the ongoing uncertainty, Shahrour places the current negotiations with Israel within a broader struggle to reassert the authority of the Lebanese state. He emphasises the necessity of disentangling Lebanon’s national decision-making from external actors, while acknowledging the deeply rooted historical tensions that complicate any path toward stability.
