Foreign Minister Youssef Rajji has said that Hezbollah chief Sheikh Naim Qassem 'can say what he wants' about the so-called 'army-people-resistance' equation but added that 'the Lebanese people no longer want this outdated equation.'
'He certainly does not want to give up his weapons, but eventually he must find a solution,' Rajji said in an interview with the al-Quds al-Arabi newspaper.
'This is an outlaw armed group and it is not legitimate. We ask it to seek a solution, hand over its weapons and form a normal political party that has the creed it wants. I support total creed freedom and let its fighters return to their normal life and each member to his job,' the minister added.
