BEIRUT, Sept 5 (NNN-NNA) – Lebanese Prime Minister, Saad Hariri, denied allegations about Hezbollah being in control of the government.
“Hezbollah does not manage the government. It is only a political party that has a stake in parliament. I am the one who manages the government,” Hariri said.
Hariri, however, noted that, Hezbollah is capable of igniting a war for regional purposes, adding that, he is not responsible for Hezbollah’s activities.
Hariri said that he cannot waste time by continuously haggling with Hezbollah, but he would rather work on implementing economic reforms, to solve the country’s serious issues.
Hariri’s remarks came, a few days after the escalation of tensions between Israel and Hezbollah, on the borders with Lebanon.
