NNA - Caretaker Prime Minister Najib Mikati said today, "The attempts of the Israeli enemy to create a new crisis, by encroaching on Lebanon's water wealth, and imposing a fait accompli in a disputed region in which Lebanon adheres to its rights, is a matter of extreme seriousness and would trigger tensions, the consequences of which no one can predict." 

He added: "In this sense, we warn of the repercussions of any incomplete step before finalizing the mission of the US mediator, whose role resumption has become more than an urgent necessity."

"We call on the United Nations and all those concerned to remedy the situation and compel the Israeli enemy to stop its provocations," Mikati underlined.

"The solution is to return to negotiations on the basis of not relinquishing Lebanon's full rights to its wealth and water," the Caretaker PM concluded.
