Alloush Predicts Tough Discussion of the Policy Statement
MP Mustafa Alloush predicted "tough discussion" of the cabinet”s policy statement at Parliament, especially when related to a clause on Hizbullah”s resistance.
Alloush, a member of the Mustaqbal Bloc, said representatives of the Hizbullah-led March 8 alliance would emphasize on their interpretation of the policy statement along the line that it has recognized the resistance.
However, representatives of the March 14 majority alliance would adhere to their concept based on the state right to "lead resistance and defense activities."
Nevertheless, Alloush said the cabinet of Premier Fouad Saniora would win a vote of confidence at parliament, saying opponents of its policy statement would not exceed five MPs.
