Local Editor

Lebanese Minister of Agriculture considered that the Special Tribunal for Lebanon (STL) is politicized, and Hizbullah will not be concerned with any resistance-accusing indictment issued by the General Prosecutor Daniel Bellemare.

Minister Hajj Hassan referred that when the resistance calls for tackling the indictment; it does not refer to its fear, but rather refers to its concerns for what is best for the country.

Hajj Hassan affirmed that the resistance seeks to stop the US and "Israeli" schemes in Lebanese, through triggering sectarian and factorial incitements.

Minister of Agriculture said, "It is our duty to reveal the encroachments of the STL and the international investigations throughout the previous years."

Minister Hussein Hajj Hassan referred to the amendments the STL made in its procedure rules, although it hasn't been established for more than two years.

On another context, Hajj Hassan criticized the other team's stances and statements, hoping that they would do them same concerning the daily "Israeli" violations of Lebanon's sovereignty.
