Now Lebanon

Former Syrian Vice President Abd Al-Halim Khadam considered today that “Iran’s and Hezbollah’s positions are now weaker than ever after their military control of Beirut.”

In a statement to the Italian news agency AKI, Khadam said that after Hezbollah turned to the inside after the July 2006 war, “they lost all they have achieved in their long struggle against Israel.”

Regarding the dialogue that is taking place in Doha, Khadam expressed his hope that all the parties will reach an agreement that would allow them to find a way out of this crisis, pointing out that Army Commander General Michel Sleiman has a lot of credibility, and hoped that electing him as president will allow strict measures to be taken against anyone who violates Lebanon’s security and communal living.
