BEIRUT, April 17 (Reuters) - Lebanese President Joseph Aoun said on Friday that any future deal reached by the government would not cede any territory or undermine Lebanon's national rights, without saying whether he was referring to prospective talks with Israel. The televised address was his first speech since the U.S. brokered a ceasefire to end fighting between Israel and armed group Hezbollah on Thursday.
The text of the deal says Israel and Lebanon would hold direct talks to produce a peace between the two countries.
