Syria Is Not Our Substitute…Hariri Didn”t Inform Us Of Any Government Layout Yet
Hizbullah Deputy Secretary-General Sheikh Naeem Qassem said Syria did not ask the parliamentary minority for anything adding Syria respects the opposition”s stance and is no substitute to it.
In an interview with the daily Ad-Diyar on Saturday, Qassem called on the prime Minister-designate Saad Hariri to benefit from the calm atmosphere and form a national unity government but not to return the country to a period re-dating the 2007 Doha agreement.
The deputy secretary-general said Hariri did not inform the parliamentary minority of the government”s layout yet, adding that Hariri must produce a formula that guarantees actual participation and partnership by all.
He did not mention anything regarding providing the parliamentary minority with veto powers in cabinet.
Qassem stressed that the opposition remains open to any proposal or formula.
He disclosed that Hizbullah Secretary-General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah reminded Hariri of his father”s traditional policy[ the late Rafik Hariri] of mixing the concept of the resistance with that of construction in Lebanon.
"This formula could be applied," Qassem said.
