A Resolução 1559 tomada em 2004 pelo Conselho de Segurança da ONU, é orientadora das questões de soberania no Líbano, o que implica a retirada das forças Sírias do território libanês e o desarmamento de mílicias. Assim e como Condoleeza Rice tem vindo a afirmar é possível exercer considerável pressão sobre a Síria e o Hezbollah com base na Resolução 1559.
