There will be an Iranian and a Syrian March 8
March 14 General Secretariat coordinator Fares Soueid said that US openness to Syria will inevitably have positive effects in Lebanon. He noted that it also aims to disentangle Syria from Iran, as-Sharq al-Awsat daily reported on Sunday.
March 14 official said the visit of Jeffrey Feltman with Daniel Shapiro, one of the creators of Syria Accountability Act, shows there will be “two copies of March 8: a Syrian one and an Iranian one.”
Souaid concluded that “the reception of the US envoys by Syria pushes Hezbollah into implicit alert”, recalling that “the party’s military leader, the the late Imad Mugniyah, was killed in Damascus and not in any region of Lebanon”.
