Syria open to session Hezbollah 'if interests require it', states Syrian FM
Syria's external affairs chief stated during a visit to Beirut on Thursday that Damascus was open to session the Iran-backed Lebanese group Hezbollah "if interests require it", Lebanon's province news bureau documented.
Asaad al-Shibani met Lebanese leaders including Head Joseph Aoun and legislature house chairperson Nabih Berri, a Hezbollah strategic partner, in his first visit to Lebanon since U.S. Head Donald Trump raised the possibility of Syrian forces combating Hezbollah in Lebanon.
Syrian Head Ahmed al-Sharaa has previously refuted what he called rumours about any Syrian presence entering Lebanon.
The former rebels and commanders that now run Syria fought against Hezbollah for years while it deployed fighters in Syria to backing former Head Bashar al-Assad.
Now that they are in electricity, they are having to calibrate alliances and legal defence team action carefully in efforts to maintain relative stability in Syria, which is still recovering from 14 years of civil conflict.
Aoun's office stated Sharaa had assured him Syria would not take sides in Lebanon's internal affairs.
