Situation in Israel and Lebanon
Q. [Inaudible]—message for Eric Adams?
The President. I'm going to make one statement.
As you can see, we've put out a statement for a 21-day cease-fire along the Israeli-Lebanese border. We were able to generate significant support from Europe as well as the Arab nations. It's important this war not widen.
I'll have more to say about it tomorrow.
Q. Mr. President—[inaudible]—a cease-fire's unviable?
NOTE: The President spoke at 9:49 p.m. on the South Lawn at the White House after exiting Marine One. A reporter referred to Mayor Eric L. Adams of New York City. The transcript was released by the Office of the Press Secretary on September 26.
