“The indications coming from U.S. Ambassador Dorothy Shea point to U.S. desire to reach an agreement over demarcation,” the sources added.
Informed sources meanwhile told al-Binaa newspaper that the Naqoura indirect negotiations between Lebanon and Israel will likely be resumed soon.

Informed sources meanwhile told al-Binaa newspaper that the Naqoura indirect negotiations between Lebanon and Israel will likely be resumed soon.
If there was really a government in Lebanon which was interested in reaching an agreement with Israel on the maritime border they wouldn't be waiting for a renewal of indirect negotiations, but would declare that in order to speed up matters Lebanese representatives are ready to sit down face-to-face with the Israelis and the problems would be solved in days.
