Gemayel: Hezbollah using refugee crisis to pressure West on Syria

Kataeb Party chief Sami Gemayel has accused Hezbollah of wanting to keep the Syrian refugee crisis unresolved in order to “pressure Europe and the West to free Syria of its isolation.”

“It is pressuring Lebanon to normalize relations with Syria and it is using Lebanon, the Lebanese people and the Syrian people present in Lebanon as a pressure card,” Gemayel added in a TV interview.

“It would be enough to implement the law in order to resolve the problem of the Syrians, but the prime minister is prohibited from enforcing it,” the Kataeb leader charged.
