The United States is hosting a second round of ambassador-level negotiations between the ambassadors of Lebanon and Israel on Thursday at the State Department in Washington, DC. This follows the earlier cancellation of a scheduled round of talks. The talks are part of ongoing US diplomatic efforts in the region, but they face domestic opposition in Lebanon, where a law criminalizes contact with Israel, rendering such negotiations illegal and void under Lebanese law.
