Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam has told journalists that no one in Lebanon wants normalisation with Israel, and everyone is opposed to it.
He said that diplomatic pressure from the international community and Arab nations on Israel to halt its attacks had not yet been exhausted.
He dismissed the strategic value of five areas Israel insists on holding in southern Lebanon, stating they serve no military or security purpose other than to put pressure on Lebanon.
Salam also strongly opposed Israeli rhetoric which has called for Palestinians in Gaza and the occupied West Bank to be displaced, and rhetoric proposing establishing a Palestinian state outside historic Palestine.
He stressed the importance of mobilising Arab and international support to counter such plans.
