Nasrallah Says Ukraine War a 'Lesson' for Those who Trust U.S.

Hizbullah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah on Tuesday said those who “trust and count on the United States” should draw a “lesson” from the Ukraine conflict.

“Washington has done everything to push for the current scenario,” Nasrallah said in a televised speech commemorating slain Hizbullah leader Abbas al-Moussawi.

“The United States is responsible for what is happening in Ukraine and it incited in this direction,” he added.

“Today the world only respects the strong and it is has remained silent in the face of U.S. violations,” Nasrallah noted.

He added that the West is showing “double standards” in dealing with the Ukraine crisis compared to its stances regarding “the U.S. wars.”

“Western countries are doing everything against Russia except for direct combat,” Hizbullah’s leader went on to say, accusing the U.S. of “putting conditions that are complicating” the Ukraine-Russia confrontation.
