Zafer Nasser to LBCI: Backs Aoun's approach to Hezbollah arms, slams party's moral judgments
Progressive Socialist Party Secretary General Zafer Nasser voiced support for President Joseph Aoun's handling of the Hezbollah weapons issue, describing it as the most effective and reasonable approach compared to others. Speaking on LBCI's "Nharkom Said" TV show, Nasser said Hezbollah has no right to decide who is patriotic and who isn't, stressing that the party cannot grant 'certificates of nationalism' or accuse others of treason. Commenting on the municipal and local elections, Nasser explained that from the moment elections were announced, the party leadership decided to give local communities the freedom to make their own choices. 'We didn't run formal partisan lists in the traditional sense — it wasn't about the party fielding a list against another,' he said.

In remarks on LBCI's "Nharkom Said" TV show, Nasser said, "We are committed to certain values, and we are facing the death and martyrdom of a symbolic figure, and we do this above political differences." He added, "We did not call for public participation in the statement issued by the party yesterday [Thursday], but rather for a moment of national solidarity." Nasser emphasized that "Hezbollah is responsible for ensuring the comfort of the participants on Sunday so that the funeral proceeds as it should."
