Nasrallah raps US interference in Lebanon
The Secretary-General of Lebanon’s Hezbollah resistance movement denounced the US’ interference in the internal affairs of Lebanon, saying Washington is a sponsor of Israel and Takfiri terrorism.
According to Tasnim news agency, in a televised speech via Al-Manar on Tuesday, Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah slammed the behavior of US Ambassador to Lebanon, Dorothy Shea saying that she is acting “like the military governor of our country”, and lashed out at Washington’s meddling in Lebanese internal affairs.
“The US ambassador to Lebanon has been openly interfering in our internal affairs. US meddling in Lebanon is rejected and the Lebanese state must move in this regard,” he added.
The Hezbollah leader also advised Washington to abandon its policy of besieging Lebanon and exerting pressure on it, saying: “Your policy is futile; it won’t weaken Hezbollah but rather will strengthen him and weaken your allies.”
He further stressed that Lebanon’s current crisis must not divert from supporting the Palestinian cause “especially now as the Zionist regime is planning to annex areas of the West Bank and Jordan Valley.”
