Nasrallah: Hezbollah cannot be a mediator in Yemen, as we fully support the Yemeni people

BEIRUT, Jul. 26 (YPA) – Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah has affirmed that ” Hezbollah has not been asked officially, to intervene with Sayyed  Abdul Malik al-Houthi in the war in  Yemen.

Hezbollah cannot play a mediation role as it openly takes sides; the side of the Yemeni people and Ansarullah, Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah said in an exclusive interview on Al-Mayadeen TV on Monday.

Considering that a mediator usually asks for concessions from the parties involved, Sayyed Nasrallah conjectured what concessions could be demanded from Ansarullah.

On the issue of mediation, the Lebanese Resistance leader went on to say that the Iranians stressed that there is nothing that the Yemenis can concede.

He also stressed that the relationship of Hezbollah with Saudi Arabia and the UAE is in no way based on ideological issues; rather, the factors that govern the relationship are merely political.

“The arrests in the UAE are a tool of political pressure on Hezbollah, and they must be dealt with.”
