Can one security force implement Resolution 1701 and the Framework Agreement in Southern Lebanon?

Countries involved in Lebanon are considering a security force to replace the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) when its mandate expires at the end of the year. The force would support the Lebanese army in implementing agreements and international resolutions in southern Lebanon.

The question raised is whether a new force can enforce both UN Security Council Resolution 1701 and the US-brokered framework agreement between Lebanon and Israel. Talks have produced broad agreement on the need for such a force.
