President Michel Aoun said Thursday that Hezbollah’s regional expansion does not mean that its influence on Lebanese politics goes beyond its capacity as part of the Lebanese people and its representation in the government and parliament.
During his meeting with British Minister for Middle East and International Development Alistair Burt, Aoun said that the cabinet is determined to implement the economic reform plan to render the Lebanese economy a productive one.
For his part, Burt stressed that the bilateral relations will not be affected by Britain’s stance regarding Hezbollah.
