Rubio Declares End of Hezbollah's Grip on Lebanon

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio has asserted that Lebanon's extended period under Hezbollah's control is nearing its end.

In remarks that reflect the Trump administration's stance toward the Lebanese political landscape, Rubio characterized the organization's influence over the nation as a form of captivity affecting the entire population. His statement signals a potential shift in international positioning regarding Hezbollah's role in Lebanese affairs.

The comments come amid ongoing developments in Lebanon's political situation and the broader regional dynamics involving the militant group and its influence over state institutions and governance.
