Jumblat says border deal confirms "truce"

Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat asked Thursday why the army was absent from the demarcation deal, considering that the deal confirms the "truce."

"Where is the sovereign wealth fund," Jumblat also asked, in a tweet.

The PSP leader added that the officials' moves are "suspicious."

"As if it is a new financial engineering operation that is destined to failure," he went on to say.

Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid also claimed on Thursday that Lebanon has "recognized" the state of Israel, by agreeing to the sea border deal.
