BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.
Sheikh Qassem: The government’s latest decision [on the disarmament of the Resistance] is non-charter-based, and if the government continues down this path, it is not faithful to Lebanon’s sovereignty.

According to NBC News, the US and Saudi Arabia will announce on Tuesday that US President Joe Biden is going to visit the Kingdom in July.

Sources said the visit will include a meeting with the Kingdom's de facto leader, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, and that the two-day trip is scheduled for July 15-16.

It is also reported that the first day will be for bilateral talks, including with MBS, while Biden is expected to meet with the Gulf Cooperation Council on the second day.

Biden had said on Sunday that his expected visit to Saudi Arabia will also address "Israel's" security issues.

Biden dismissed claims that his visit to Saudi Arabia will have to do with the Kingdom's oil exports, rather, the US President said it is part of a larger meeting that will take place in Saudi Arabia: "That’s the reason I’m going. And it has to do with national security for them — for Israelis," Biden told reporters.

“I have a program — anyway. It has to do with much larger issues than having to do with the energy piece,” he added.

The talks would "include support to the UN-mediated truce in Yemen, which has led to the most peaceful period there since war began seven years ago," the White House statement read, adding "means for expanding regional economic and security cooperation, including new and promising infrastructure and climate initiatives, as well as 'deterring threats' from Iran, advancing human rights, and ensuring global energy and food security."

According to The Times of "Israel", the US President's trip to the occupied territories has been set for July 14 and 15.

The White House statement stated that "he will meet with Israeli leaders to discuss 'Israel’s' security, prosperity, and its increasing integration into the greater region."

According to the statement, Biden will also visit the West Bank " to consult with the Palestinian Authority and to reiterate his strong support for a two-state solution, with equal measures of security, freedom, and opportunity for the Palestinian people."

White House Spokesperson Karen Jean-Pierre responded to a question earlier this month, on June 1, about previous statements made by Joe Biden against Saudi Arabia, which he described as a "pariah", saying the remarks still stand.

Biden has delayed his visit to West Asia a number of times so far, with Politico claiming that Biden "angrily rejected" the possibility of meeting with Mohammad bin Salman, the Saudi Crown Prince, before giving in later on.
