BEIRUT: Senior Shiite cleric Sayyed Mohammad Hussein Fadlallah said on Friday that the new Cabinet should be committed to national unity where all "personal and sectarian ambitions give way to the ambition of building a new country." In his weekly Friday sermon delivered from the Imamayn Hassanayn Mosque in Haret Hreik, Fadlallah called for building an independent country "where all citizens meet to lift it up on the economic, political and security levels."
"We want the new ministers to consider their positions as a responsibility to be assumed and not as a distinguishing honor," he said. "If they are talking about a national unity government, then they should show commitment to national unity."
Fadlallah also hailed the prisoner swap which took place between Hizbullah and "Israel" earlier this week.
"Through this swap, the resistance could confirm its credibility and legitimacy," he said.
