Frangieh says Hezbollah makes Lebanon, Arab countries proud

Marada Movement leader MP Sleiman Frangieh lamented on Thursday the labeling of Hezbollah as a terrorist organization by Arab countries.

“Hezbollah as a resistance movement makes Lebanon and the Arabs proud,” Frangieh said via his Twitter account.

He also lamented that the party is “being targeted by Arabs, which only appeases Israel.”

Saudi-led bloc of six Gulf Arab nations formally branded Hezbollah a terrorist organization on Wednesday.

The move by the Gulf Cooperation Council comes less than two weeks after Saudi Arabia announced it was cutting $4 billion in aid to Lebanese security forces. The kingdom and other Gulf states followed up that move by urging their citizens to leave Lebanon.

The GCC includes Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Oman.
