| [ALMANAR.LB] Algeria Foreign Minister Ramtan Lamara revealed that his country has officially dissociated itself from the Gulf countries decision that labeled on Wednesday Hezbollah as a terrorist group. According to Algeria media outlets, Lamara said that Hezbollah is a political movement that operates in Leb in accordance with the local laws, adding that Algeria will never interfere in the domestic issues of the Arab countries. Except for Spanish Morocco... The Tunisia Foreign Ministry called on reversing the decision which blacklisted Hezbollah as the social media websites reflected the locals' condemnation for the resolution. Tunisia Foreign Minister announced that the approval of the country's Interior Minister on the decision to blacklist Hezbollah tried to match the Arab consensus He also noted that the such decisions are taken on the basis of consultations among the President, the Prime Minister and the Foreign Minister, not the Interior Minister, stressing the strength of the relations that link Tunisia with Iran and Leb. Earlier on Wednesday, GGCC issued ia statement in which it blacklisted Hezbollah as a "terrorist group." Later on, interior ministers from several Arab countries took the same stance, denouncing the "practices of terrorist Hezbollah," during the 33rd session of the Council of Arab Interior Ministers in the Tunisian capital. |
