Foreign Affairs How Lebanon Continues to Confound the U.S. The new U.S.-brokered memorandum of understanding between Israel and Lebanon has the weaknesses of its predecessors. The recent memorandum of understanding between Israel and Lebanon is not the first time the U.S. has placed itself at the center of Lebanese affairs. Serial interventions, both military and diplomatic, have been undertaken by Democrats and Republicans alike in Washington over close to a century. These efforts attest to Lebanon’s outsized ability to engage Washington at the highest level, and highlight the at best limited, short-term effectiveness of that involvement.

That’s certainly true of the Russia–Ukraine war. This week’s headlines could have been written last October, when I was in Kiev , or on many other occasions stretching back to the Biden years. “Russia’s missile and drone attacks on Ukraine kill at least 22,” read one from the Associated Press. During my trip, I had heard from Ukrainian officials, former officials, and military analysts that Kiev was running dangerously short on “interceptors,” or anti-missile missiles. Perhaps they were exaggerating the scarcity to press for U.S. assistance. Or perhaps not.…Open
