A reporter from Arab News asked whether Council members have discussed the Secretary-General's proposal for a post-UNIFIL presence and which option members favor. Ambassador Lesson said the Council received the June 1 report on post-UNIFIL options and held a first round of close consultations, which she described as serious.
Lesson said the situation on the ground has changed since the report was prepared, that trilateral talks between Israel and Lebanon are under way and that member states must consider timing and conditions before deciding on any post-UNIFIL configuration. She said the Council hopes to continue consultations this month but must take into account developments on the ground.
