President Joseph Aoun has arrived in Washington, where he is scheduled to meet with U.S. President Donald Trump, after the latest round of Lebanon-Israel talks wrapped up in Italy.

President Joseph Aoun on Saturday left Beirut for Washington, where he is expected to meet U.S. President Donald Trump, the Lebanese presidency said, after talks between Lebanon and Israel wrapped up in Italy.

MP Ali Fayyad of Hezbollah on Friday charged that the Lebanese leadership "has abandoned its people, indifferent to their suffering and the extent of the crimes committed against them by the Israelis."

"This ruling authority seems to have become corrupt and is persisting in its choices despite all the failures and despite all the advice and criticism directed at it from abroad and within, even from its allies," Fayyad added.
