Despite historic U.S.-mediated direct talks between Israeli and Lebanese envoys in Washington on April 14 and 23—the first in decades—leading to a 10-day ceasefire from April 16 extended by three weeks, trader consensus reflects skepticism over further diplomacy by May 31. Persistent border clashes, including Israeli strikes and Hezbollah rocket fire as recently as April 27, alongside evacuation orders in southern Lebanon, underscore the truce's fragility. Lebanon's internal divisions, with Hezbollah opposing normalization and demanding preconditions like full Israeli withdrawal, have hindered momentum, while no additional high-level meetings are scheduled amid stalled negotiations on disarmament and border security. The ceasefire's mid-May expiration looms as a potential flashpoint.
