The conditions of Hezbollah are hindering dialogue with Saudi Arabia

“Libyan Deepite”

A source familiar with “Libanon Deepite” said that the Saudi delegate to Lebanon, Prince Yazid bin Farhan, has focused in his meetings since his arrival on Friday evening to Beirut on the files that provide the best opportunities to advance Lebanon again, while the relationship with the party remained the most sensitive address, amid not encouraging indicators on the course of dialogue between the two sides.

According to the source, the speech of the Hezbollah Secretary -General, Sheikh Naim Qassem, has left a negative impact to the Kingdom, after he presented a conditional approach to the relationship with Saudi ArabiaUnlike the positive image promoted in some media. The source pointed out that Qasim set clear conditions for any dialogue with Riyadh, which was interpreted in the Kingdom as a complication of the possibility of opening a new page.

Sheikh Qasim had called on Saudi Arabia to a dialogue based on addressing existing problems, responding to fears, and securing common interests, stressing that “Israel” is the real enemy, not resistance. He also stressed the need to freeze the previous differences, even temporarily, in order to devote himself to facing the Israeli danger, pointing out that the resistance weapon is directed exclusively towards the “Israeli” enemy, not against Saudi Arabia or any other party. He considered that any pressure on the resistance is in the interest of “Israel”, and that its absence may expose other countries to direct regional dangers.
