"Hezbollah should handover military and political decisions-making"-Geagea
Lebanons government, and not Hezbollah, should make all political and military decisions, if the current crisis is to be solved, Samir Geagea, told Asharq al Awsat on Tuesday. The head of the executive committed of the Lebanese Forces also indicated that Lebanon was at the center of a conflict between the United States and the West, on the one hand, and Iran and Syria, on the other. In an interview with Asharq al Awsat, Geagea declined to hold any party responsible for the Israeli attacks on Lebanon, but indicated the March 14 coalition, of which he is a member, has much to say to Hezbollah, after the violence ends. From a humanitarian point of view we are completely sympathetic to the plight of civilians and we also feel sad at whats happening. But from a strategic point of view, the Lebanese government has to make detailed calculations, in order to understand which measures need to be taken, starting from the facts that have emerged in the last few days, in order to solve the crisis.
