Hezbollah’s Parliamentary Bloc said negotiations to demarcate land and maritime borders in the south of the country, which are expected to begin soon, do not fall within the context of reconciliation with the Israeli occupation.
The Hezbollah Parliamentary Bloc added that the border negotiating framework is not related to the normalization policies pursued by Arab countries that have never believed in the option of resistance, as he described it.
The bloc (13 deputies out of a total of 128 deputies) stated that determining the coordinates of national sovereignty is the exclusive responsibility of the Lebanese state in question to announce that this land and these waters are Lebanese land and waters, contrary to everything that has been said here and there.
“The negotiating framework on an exclusive issue related to our southern maritime borders and the restoration of our land, which leads to the demarcation of our sites of national sovereignty, has absolutely nothing to do with the context of reconciliation with the Zionist enemy. that usurps Palestine, nor the normalization policies it pursued, “said Hassan Ezz El-Din, a deputy in Hezbollah’s Lebanese Parliamentary Bloc. Recently, it can be adopted by Arab countries that did not believe in the option of resistance. “
This is Hezbollah’s first comment since Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri announced on October 2 that negotiations would begin with Israel on demarcation of the border under the auspices of the United Nations in the middle of the same month.
Stefan Dujarric, spokesman for the United Nations Secretary-General, announced on Tuesday that negotiations will begin around the middle of the month at the United Nations headquarters in Naqoura, southern Lebanon, and the United States will act as a “mediator and facilitator for discussions on the demarcation of the maritime boundary “.
The Speaker of Parliament, Nabih Berri, Hezbollah’s most prominent ally and who announced that the deal had been reached a week ago, said the meetings will be held “continuously at the United Nations headquarters … under the auspices of the UN Special Coordinator team “in Lebanon.
The announcement drew criticism, especially from Hezbollah opponents, who saw in Berri’s announcement that an agreement had been reached with the tacit approval of the party, which is Israel’s arch enemy and that it had previously announced its opposition to any role of The United States in the negotiations due to its close association with Tel Aviv.
