Shea: We did not support last government because it was formed by Hezbollah

US Ambassador to Lebanon Dorothy Shea said on Friday that the USA is still pressuring Hezbollah.

Shea also stressed that Free Patriotic Movement head Gebran Bassil “covers Hezbollah’s weapons while Hezbollah covers his corruption.”

“We did not support the last government because it was formed by Hezbollah, but we stood beside the Lebanese people and we will see what the new government will look like to determine our stance,” Shea added via video.

“The US insists on its positions, and if it does not do that, they will return to their corruption; and no one will help them at all unless we see progress made step by step, and there will be nothing for free from now on,” she concluded by saying.
