Mike Huckabee, the U.S. ambassador to Israel, said that Hezbollah is the only obstacle to the progress of negotiations between Israel and Lebanon led by Washington.

Huckabee called Hezbollah a group supported by the Islamic Republic of Iran, responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Americans, and, in criticizing Tehran, wrote: “Everything the Iranian government touches is ruined.”

He added that on the evening of Tuesday, Shahrivar 10, he had discussed the process of these negotiations with Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel, and Michel Aoun, the U.S. ambassador to Lebanon.
