Should the EU replace UN peacekeepers in Lebanon?

تفصیل

The UN Security Council has decided to end the UN Interim Force or UNIFIL in Lebanon by December. The European Union is considering stepping in and deploying its own troops. Brussels wants to provide structured training, advice and capacity-building for Lebanon’s army to deal with Hezbollah. But with thousands of UN peacekeepers scheduled to leave by end of the year, would this proposed new European training mission be enough to keep Lebanon's borders safe?
