DebkaFile Headlines We will not stay one day if Lebanese consensus asks us to leave, said Assad in hour-long unscheduled speech full of contradictions to parliament in Damascus Saturday. But we cannot abdicate our commitment to Lebanese president. He ceded only eastward redeployment of Syrian troops eastward to Beqaa Valley up to Syrian border - no withdrawal or reference to thousands of secret service agents. Syria's role in Lebanon will not end with military withdrawal, he said. Lebanese opposition leaders immediately rejected Assad statement as failing to announce withdrawal and lacking timeframe even for redeployment. Friday, Bush said complete Syrian pull-out from Lebanon including intelligence is non-negotiable.
