Negotiating Israel-Lebanon Maritime Borders
On February 22, USIP hosted a conversation with Amos Hochstein, U.S. special presidential coordinator for global infrastructure and energy security and the primary mediator of the Israel-Lebanon agreement. The discussion unpacked how the agreement came about, the lessons learned for American diplomacy, and the precedents it may set for broader Israeli-Lebanese relations as well as for conflicts across the Eastern Mediterranean.
