Raji: Hezbollah Is Only Lebanese in Name Primarily Focused on Disarmament
Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Youssef Rjei discussed the efforts of the Lebanese Army in strengthening control over border areas, especially the experimental zones in the south, with the aim of restoring full state sovereignty over the territories and ensuring they are free of unofficial arms. He also emphasized that the core issue is not with the Shia sect itself, but with Hezbollah, which he described as essentially Iranian and operating outside the framework of Lebanese resistance. He warned of the necessity to dismantle Hezbollah’s military infrastructure and disarm the group. He clarified that Lebanon is working to demonstrate full sovereignty, and that the army possesses the necessary capabilities to achieve this, with international support conditioned on official institutions. Additionally, he pointed out that the framework agreement signed with Israel under American auspices is a crucial step for future negotiations, and that the United States has played an important role in curbing Israel’s regional ambitions. Rjei expressed hope that, through the implementation of these policies, Lebanon will become a country free of illegal arms and with full sovereignty, while international support continues to bolster institutions and aid in reconstruction.
