Lebanon wants US to help lift Israel blockade
Lebanon urged the US on Wednesday to make Israel remove a sea and air blockade imposed on the country. Prime Minister Fouad Siniora also called on Washington to boost its financial aid to help Lebanon recover from war-related economic damage running into billions of dollars. "The United States can do more," he told a news conference. "The United States can support us in putting real pressure on Israel to lift the siege." Posted by: Fred 2006-08-24 |
