Walid Sukariya, a member of Hezbollah’s party in Parliament, considered the relationship with Syria a priority for economic and trade relations between Lebanon and the Levant, while political analyst Bishara Khairallah described the timing of the speech by the Secretary-General of Hezbollah as “wrong”.
Nasrallah’s words sparked a huge wave of controversy in the Lebanese interior, and again highlighted the point of the political dispute regarding the relationship with Syria.
Yesterday, in his speech, Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah refused to deploy international forces on the Lebanon-Syria border, underscoring the need to open Lebanese channels of communication with the Syrian government.
Representative of the “Hezbollah” bloc in Parliament, Walid Sukariya told Sputnik: “The relationship with Syria is a priority for economic and trade relations between Lebanon and the Levant.”
He added: “Lebanon is now in talks with the International Monetary Fund to reorganize the economic situation and the international trend towards building a productive economy that is based mainly on agriculture and industry and not on the previous rentier economy that led us to what we are Naturally, the relationship with Syria is a priority for economic and trade relations between Lebanon and the entire Arab Mashreq because Lebanon and the Port of Beirut were the port of Iraq and the Gulf, and Lebanon is the line of communication and it was an agricultural and industrial product and it was exported to these countries and this matter stopped, Mr. Hassan Nasrallah says that if we were to build a production economy, we should consider where to spend production, it is natural to go to Iraq, the Gulf, Syria and neighboring Arab countries and it is natural to have a distinctive relationship with Syria because it is the entrance and crossing of each re lotion. “
Soukarieh noted that “there may be US pressure to pay political prices for financial assistance from the International Monetary Fund,” explaining that
The ambition of the United States is fundamental to eliminate resistance, against Hezbollah’s weapons and close the borders.
He continued: “It is now being argued that smuggling between Lebanon and Syria causes losses to the Lebanese economy and some may request the introduction of international emergency forces as in Resolution 1701 and their objective is not to prevent smuggling of a diesel tanker truck. or for what that objective is to separate Lebanon from Syria and block it and separate it from Syria and all the means of support that it could get from there, and the words of the secretary general were very clear. “
The Lebanese MP stressed that “the relationship must be a special relationship with Syria for economic reasons, and at the same time the resistance must be in a relationship with Syria and this is a source of strength to protect Lebanon from any Israeli aggression.”
For his part, the writer and political analyst Qasim Kassir says: “Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah presented in his approach on the subject of Lebanese-Syrian relations from two angles. The first corner that has to do with the Syrian situation is that it has passed the stage of danger and has stabilized with some problems. ” The less the Syrian state regained control of most of the regions in Syria, and this is what all who bet on the change in Syria should end this bet.
He added in his speech to “Sputnik”: “The second point is that the economic and financial situation in Lebanon is facing a major crisis and needs a change in performance, especially through the strengthening of industry and agriculture, and Syria is the country through which Lebanon can export its goods to Iraq or other regions, from Here, the Secretary General of Hezbollah considered that Lebanon should reconsider the nature of the relationship with Syria and go with the full normalization of this relationship to benefit of the changes that serve Lebanon first and not the problem in the service of the Syrian government, but Lebanon’s interest requires a review of relations to benefit from the variables they obtained p In Syria, expect Lebanon to receive aid or not, but change the Lebanese internal situation towards Syria serves Lebanon and serves Lebanese agriculture and industry. “
Kassir considered that it is necessary to establish relations with Syria, considering that:
There are positive signs at this level when the Prime Minister receives the Syrian Ambassador and some ministers visiting Syria, but the crisis in Corona has led to concern over the monitoring of these files.
On the other hand, the writer and political analyst Bishara Khairallah emphasized that the timing of Hezbollah’s Secretary General’s speech yesterday was incorrect, on the eve of the start of negotiations with the International Monetary Fund.
Khairallah told Sputnik: “Frankly, Nasrallah has prolonged the wrong time, and this gaze does not serve Lebanon’s goals by borrowing from the International Monetary Fund. Hezbollah may have a meaningful occasion for them, but at the same time on the eve of the start of negotiations with a fund International criticism, through negotiations of its nature and political form, but its objective in practice is supposed to serve the economy, in this case the international community has objections to the issue of party interference in events in Syria, Yemen and Iraq.
He added: “Secondly, what Nasrallah said is the opposite of the government’s plan, because it is based on reforms and not reforms without putting controls on smuggling through land crossings. Among the smuggling is the end of the weapon, because under the pretext of arms, diesel and flour that are supported in favor of Hezbollah’s regional objectives are smuggled. “
Khairallah emphasized that what is far from benefiting Lebanon is the resumption of normalization of relations with Syria today, noting that what is required today is to neutralize Lebanon from the conflicts of the axes.
