Biden: It’s hard for the US to say there won’t be a major war in the Middle East
The United States finds it difficult to say that a full-scale war in the Middle East can be avoided. This assessment was made by the President of the country Joe Biden, his words are given on the White House website.
According to the American leader, the United States is doing “a lot” to avoid escalation. “We’re basically trying to push the rest of the world and our allies to participate, as France is doing in Lebanon, in reducing tensions,” Biden said.
At the same time, the politician clarified that if Iran has “such irrational proxy forces” as the Lebanese Hezbollah movement and the Houthis, “it is difficult to talk about anything with confidence.”
Earlier, information appeared that the United States, against the background of Israeli operations against the Hezbollah movement, plans to achieve the election of a new president of Lebanon. Thus, the Biden administration believes that Washington, in light of Israel’s operations, may try to reduce the influence of the Lebanese movement in the country’s political system.
