Trump calls on Hezbollah: Violence must end, there is an opportunity for peace

U.S. President Trump made a series of statements after announcing that the temporary ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon had come into effect.

Emphasizing that he wants Hezbollah, in particular, to refrain from attacks during this critical process, Trump stated, "I hope they show a nice and proper attitude during this important period. If they do so, this will be a magnificent moment for them. No more killing. Peace must finally be achieved."

In another post, Trump expressed that today could be of historical importance for Lebanon and wrote that "beautiful things are happening."

According to the agreement announced by the American administration, the parties have agreed to silence their weapons for ten days. It is reported that tensions in the region have relatively decreased with the implementation of the ceasefire.

However, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu confirmed that they have accepted the ceasefire but stated that Israeli soldiers will continue to remain in the occupied territories in southern Lebanon. This statement underscores that despite the atmosphere of temporary peace in the region, the fundamental issues have not yet been resolved.

On the other hand, the international community is closely monitoring whether the ceasefire can create an environment for lasting peace. It remains a matter of curiosity how Trump's call will be received by armed groups and actors in the region.

Trump's statements on social media are seen as an important turning point in the long-standing tension between Lebanon and Israel. In the coming days, the sustainability of the ceasefire and the stance of the parties will be decisive in the search for peace in the Middle East.
