Progressive Socialist Party leader Walid Jumblat said Thursday that a statement by Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah has put an end to the possibility of reaching a settlement over the Line 23.
Nasrallah had threatened, in a televised speech on Wednesday, to "flip the table on the entire world" if Lebanon does not get allowed to benefit from its offshore oil and gas resources.
"The new equation is Karish, what’s beyond Karish and what’s beyond, beyond Karish," Nasrallah said.
In response to the fiery statement, Jumblat said in a tweet that Lebanon has entered a Russian-Ukrainian war.
"Can Nasrallah tell us what is allowed and what is not," Jumblat asked.
"It would be better than wasting time on guessing and speculating while the Central Bank's reserves are draining every day," he concluded.
