CNN Top News｜联合国表决通过将于明年结束在黎巴嫩近50年的维和部队部署

The UN Security Council voted unanimously on Thursday to terminate the UN peacekeeping force in southern Lebanon at the end of next year after nearly five decades, bowing to demands from the United States and its close ally Israel.

The United States, which initially demanded that the force be ended in six months and later sought a one-year final extension, voted in favor of a final 16-month mandate to continue its activities near Lebanons UN-drawn border with Israel.

The multinational peacekeeping force has played a significant role in monitoring the security situation in southern Lebanon for decades, including during the Israel-Hezbollah war last year, but it has drawn criticism from both sides and numerous US lawmakers, some of whom now hold prominent roles in President Donald Trumps administration or wield new influence with the Republican White House.

The United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon was created to oversee the withdrawal of Israeli troops from southern Lebanon after Israels 1978 invasion. Its mission was expanded following the monthlong 2006 war between Israel and the militant group Hezbollah.

The resolution gives the force, known as UNIFIL, a year starting on Dec. 31, 2026, to withdraw its 10,800 military and civilian personnel and all UN equipment. During this period, UNIFIL was authorized to carry out a few limited activities.

The resolution says the aim is to make the Lebanese government the sole provider of security in southern Lebanon north of the UN-drawn border with Israel known as the Blue Line. It calls on Israel to withdraw its forces from north of the Blue Line.

Trump administration political appointees came into office wanting to shut down UNIFIL as soon as possible and have secured major cuts in US funding for the force.

They regard the operation as a waste of money that is merely delaying the goal of eliminating Hezbollahs influence and restoring full security control to the Lebanese armed forces. The government says its forces are not yet capable of assuming full control.

European nations, notably France and Italy, objected to winding down UNIFIL too quickly. They argued that ending the peacekeeping mission before the Lebanese army was able to fully secure the border area would create a vacuum Hezbollah could easily exploit.

During the one-year withdrawal period, the resolution says, UNIFIL is authorized to provide security and assistance to UN personnel, to maintain situational awareness in the vicinity of UNIFIL locations, and to contribute to the protection of civilians and the safe delivery of humanitarian aid within the limits of its capacities.

The resolution urges the international community to intensify its support, including equipment, material and finance to the Lebanese armed forces.

联合国安理会周四一致投票决定，在近五十年后于明年年底终止联合国驻黎巴嫩南部维和部队，此举顺应了美国及其亲密盟友以色列的要求。

美国最初要求该部队在六个月内结束任务，随后又寻求延长一年作为最终期限，最终投票赞成一项为期16个月的最终授权，允许其在黎巴嫩与以色列联合国划定的边界附近继续活动。

数十年来，多国维和部队在监督黎巴嫩南部安全局势方面发挥了重要作用，包括去年以色列与真主党的冲突期间。然而，该部队却遭到冲突双方及众多美国议员的批评，其中部分批评者如今在唐纳德·特朗普总统政府中担任要职，或在共和党主政的白宫拥有新的影响力。

联合国驻黎巴嫩临时部队成立于1978年以色列入侵黎巴嫩后，旨在监督以军从黎巴嫩南部撤军。2006年以色列与激进组织真主党爆发长达一个月的战争后，该部队的任务范围得到扩展。

该决议授权联合国驻黎巴嫩临时部队（联黎部队，UNIFIL）自2026年12月31日起的一年内，撤出其10,800名军事和文职人员以及所有联合国设备。在此期间，联黎部队获准开展少量有限活动。

决议指出，其目标是使黎巴嫩政府成为联合国划定的黎以边界——即蓝线——以北的黎巴嫩南部地区“唯一的安全保障者”。决议呼吁以色列从蓝线以北地区撤军。

特朗普政府的政治任命官员上任后便试图尽快解散联合国驻黎巴嫩临时部队（UNIFIL），并已成功大幅削减美国对该部队的资助。

他们认为此次行动纯属浪费资金，不仅无助于实现消除真主党影响力、将安全控制权完全交还黎巴嫩武装部队的目标，反而会拖延这一进程。政府方面则表示，其部队目前尚不具备全面接管的能力。

欧洲国家，特别是法国和意大利，反对过快缩减联合国驻黎巴嫩临时部队（UNIFIL）的规模。他们指出，若在黎巴嫩军队完全掌控边境地区安全之前结束维和任务，将形成真主党极易利用的权力真空。

决议指出，在一年的撤军期内，联合国驻黎巴嫩临时部队（UNIFIL）获授权为联合国人员提供安全协助，『保持对部队驻地周边局势的感知』，并『在其能力范围内』为保护平民及人道主义援助的安全运送作出贡献。

该决议敦促国际社会加强对黎巴嫩武装部队的支持，包括提供装备、物资和资金。
