A member of the Lebanese Parliament revealed that Lebanon is reluctant to renew the contract to import electricity from Syria and does not pay the fees it owes, fearing sanctions under the “Caesar Law”.
Member of the Hezbollah-affiliated “loyalty to the resistance” bloc, MP Hussein Hajj Hassan, said: “We are importing electricity from Syria to support the Lebanese grid and supply from Syria, and unfortunately, after the promulgation of the Caesar Law , there are some officials in Lebanon who were dismayed, even though the electricity came from Syria. ” Syria needs Lebanon, because the production of electricity in Lebanon is not enough. “
He added: “However, Lebanon is reluctant to renew the contract with Syria, in addition to not paying its dues, and the reason is confusion in internal and regional Lebanese policies, and fear of unjustified sanctions as a result of the region and the world are violated by the American arrogance that dominates the world with illegal and immoral sanctions. ” .
He stressed that “Lebanon and Syria have historical and geographical relations and common economic interests at all levels, including the issues of electricity, water, security, politics and economics.”
