Aoun, Salam to discuss possible response to Hezbollah statement
President Joseph Aoun and Prime Minister Nawaf Salam will meet prior to Thursday’s cabinet session to discuss the statement issued in the morning by Hezbollah and whether to respond to it or not, MTV said.
In Its statement, Hezbollah lashed out against the prospect of any "political" negotiations between Lebanon and Israel, and insisted that it has a right to defend itself.
In remarks to Al-Arabiya television, Lebanese sources stressed that “the state is in charge and cannot be bypassed by any side.”
“The Lebanese majority takes the decision in any file and the president is practicing his powers according to the constitution,” the sources said.
“Hezbollah did not only respond to the president’s initiative regarding negotiations, but also to Berri,” the sources added.
NO MORE LIES! SIMPLE MATH FOR BLIND IDIOTS ADVISING PRESIDENT & GOVERNMENT. Since 2020, interest on Eurobond $50 Billion debt is $25 Billion. This is $5 Billion per year or $416 Million in interest per month on Eurobond alone. Interest based on credit rating (Moody/Fitch). Any idiot knows removing political risk by disarming HizbIran will greatly improve rating, cut interest by half, allow rebuilding & make investment feasible by eager diaspora. Sadly, president & army chief indecision & weakness by not disarming Hizbollah is costing us over $200 Million a month. Hizb Zombie army (Fela Kuti) are Iranian mercenaries who occupied, assassinated, terrorized and destroyed our economy & institutions turning best Arab country into a beggar destitute nation. Hizb has no support while army supported by people, Arabs, US, Europe & UNIFIL. Army can & must disarm HizbIran in one month. Civil war is impossible and a lie. Give Hizb ultimatum now to save lebanon!
