Raad says Hezbollah calm, others 'tense' in presidential approach
Hezbollah MP Mohammad Raad said Wednesday that his bloc is taking a calm approach to the presidential file in order to agree with others for the interest of the country.
"But others have become very tense," the MP added.
Raad stressed Hezbollah's commitment to the Taif Accord. "We never back down from our commitments," he added.
Hezbollah has been calling for dialogue to end a presidential crisis that has dragged for more than eight months.
"The dialogue wanted by the defiance camp is only aimed at torpedoing the Taif Accord and the Lebanese constitution," the Lebanese Forces’ Strong Republic parliamentary bloc said Tuesday, adding that open-ended electoral sessions would resolve the crisis, and not Hezbollah's dialogue.
