BEIRUT, Mar 19 (NNN-NNA) – Hezbollah leader, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, warned yesterday, against the danger of a civil war in Lebanon, the al-Manar TV reported.
“There is information that some external and internal parties are pushing for a civil war in Lebanon. The awareness of the Lebanese people has prevented this so far, but the danger is still there,” Nasrallah said in a televised speech.
Nasrallah noted that his party will never opt to using weapons to force change in the country.
“Hezbollah is not interested in resorting to weapons, for the sake of reforming the state, forming a government, or fighting corruption, because these goals can be achieved by other means,” Nasrallah said.
He added that Hezbollah is not the only party that owns weapons in Lebanon.
The Hezbollah leader also warned that some of the protests taking place in the country recently, may be triggered by the parties who want to provoke violence.
Lebanon has been witnessing demonstrations all over the country, in protest against the dire living conditions, amid the unprecedented economic crisis.
