France Backs Lebanon-Israel Framework, Offers Implementation Support
🪖 UNIFIL — Paris backs implementation while its own troops are the implementation. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: France has ~700 troops south of the Litani under UNIFIL. Supporting implementation isn't abstract — French soldiers are the physical enforcement layer. With Hezbollah rejecting the framework and IDF striking Nabatieh, Paris is endorsing a deal its forces may be asked to police under fire. P5 backing adds diplomatic weight but zero new enforcement capacity.
