Germany says Lebanon ceasefire 'within reach'
Germany's Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said Tuesday that an agreement on a proposed ceasefire in the conflict between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon was "within reach".
"A ceasefire and steps towards a political solution along the lines of U.N. Resolution 1701 are within reach thanks to direct U.S. and French mediation," Baerbock told reporters on the sidelines of a G7 foreign ministers meeting in Italy.
