Hezbollah Calls on All Parties to Focus on Coping with Socioeconomic Crisis Plaguing Lebanon

Islam Times - Hezbollah Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem stressed that the new government must concentrate on coping with socioeconomic crisis plaguing Lebanon, noting that the Party is satisfied with the results of the parliamentary elections.

Sheikh Qassem added that, since the results of the parliamentary elections did not give a majority to any party, all parties must assume the responsibility of facing the hard economic conditions.
