In Lebanon, the government is entering potential talks with Israel under pressure and without a unified political stance.
The situation echoes the early 1980s, when the 1982 Lebanon War and subsequent negotiations led to deep internal divisions.
A US-backed peace deal in 1983, signed during occupation and civil war, ultimately worsened tensions and triggered the February 6, 1984 uprising.
The agreement collapsed, shifting influence towards Syria and later Iran.
Today, senior figures such as Walid Jumblatt and Nabih Berri oppose direct talks, calling instead for an end to hostilities.
President Joseph Aoun argues negotiations are necessary to secure stability.
Divisions between the government and Hezbollah raise concerns that history could repeat itself, with risks of renewed instability.
