Charbel: ’’Time’s’’ Article Dangerous, Targets Hizbullah
Lebanese Interior Minister Marwan Charbel said that the "Time's" article was "dangerous" and sought to target Hizbullah.
"Targeting Hizbullah will have consequences and spark debates that do not fall in Lebanon's interests because whoever wants to create unrest in Lebanon does so through creating sectarian tensions," Charbel warned.
"We have to be careful not to allow these attempts to harm our stability," he said. "Journalists have an important and effective role in this."
"The relationship between the STL and the Lebanese government is through the Prosecutor General's office and when there are any issues within the prerogatives of the Interior Ministry we won't hesitate and will cooperate all the way to the end," Charbel was quoted as saying by the Central News Agency.
On the Antelias blast that took place a few weeks ago, Charbel stated: "The blast was a result of a personal dispute between the two victims and this has been confirmed by the investigations.
"The facts in the incident proved my statements and I was not defending Hizbullah," he stressed.
"Had it been involved, I would have announced it," the interior minister remarked.
