had revealed that communication between Hizbullah and Qatar was not suspended despite being at odds on several political issues.

He added: "We have met with a Qatari delegation ... and we're still in a disagreement over Syria but we were not seeking problems with anyone, not even with Soddy Arabia."

He continued: "We told the Qatari envoy that the military choice in Syria is futile and the attempt to oust Assad militarily is an act of madness, that's why I call on all countries to contribute towards finding a political solution. We also spoke of neutralizing Leb in the Syrian crisis."

"Qatar is reevaluating all its stances in the region," Nasrallah noted.
