U.S. Ambassador to Lebanon Michel Issa, who is taking part in the Lenanon-Israel talks in Washington, has said that "the Israeli withdrawal will happen sooner or later, but not tomorrow."

"The atmosphere is positive, the pilot zones will be selected, and there will be a declaration of intent in tomorrow's meeting," Issa added, in Arabic-language remarks to Al-Jadeed TV.
