Hezbollah accuses US, Saudi of hindering formation of new Lebanese government

SANAA, July 14 (YPA) –  Hezbollah Lebanon resistance movement accused Saudi Arabia and the United States of obstructing the formation of a new Lebanese government.

“Saudi interventions in the formation of a new government are no longer a secret, and it is the main reason of the political parties to raise their ceiling demands and quotas, and ignite the obstacles and internal nodes,” the member of the Lebanese Hezbollah Central Council, Sheikh Nabil Qawouk said.

He indicated that the US-Saudi foreign demands became known and exposed as well as the internal one, stressing that “the delay in the formation of the government is deliberately targeting the interests of all Lebanese.”

“If some internal and Saudi parties are betting on compensating their defeats in the parliamentary elections by increasing ceiling demands and quotas in the new government, they are wrong,” he said during a graduation ceremony, adding that because internal political equations are stronger and more sensitive than any Saudi intervention or external dictates. ”
