Hezbollah insists on Parliament’s commitments in the face of the crisis in Lebanon

The Deputy Secretary-General of the Lebanese Islamic Resistance, Sheikh Naim Qassem, called, during a ceremony in the town of Husseinieh in the southern city of Maaroub, the political parties represented in the unicameral Legislative Council to present practical goals to get the country out of ruin.

Qassem explained that the formation of the government is an essential issue to promote recovery, “because things could deteriorate more and more if we continue to waste time on individual disagreements.”

And the representative of Hezbollah rejected the refusal and abstention of some parliamentary blocs from participating in the formation of the government, “a position that will stop any progress towards restoring the nation,” he said.

He stated that the division in the country is an expression of the American position, which is working to nullify any achievement during this period and highlight the life problems of the population.

In this sense, loyalty to the Resistance Bloc and the Islamic Action Front demanded the rapid formation of the government in Lebanon to deal with issues such as approval of the recovery plan, stability of the national currency exchange rate, and protectionism. from the depositors.

Yesterday, the group of legislators called on the Ministry of Economy to mobilize planning and control efforts, to end the so-called bread crisis, and to put an end to the monopolists, smugglers and those involved in manipulating the lives of citizens.
