Local Editor

Head of Loyalty to the Resistance Bloc MP, Mohammad Raad, stated that the Lebanese crisis is manifested in the national Lebanese division, not the date of parliamentary elections.

In a meeting with former Prime Minister Salim al-Hoss, attended by former MP Amine Cherri that, Raad confirmed "If a date for the elections forms an opportunity to reach national consensus, we must not waste this time."
"We insist that parliamentary elections take place on their due date, and that we all agree over an election law," Raad confirmed.

He further emphasized the necessity to grab the opportunity to adopt an electoral law "that will open a national scope on good and proper bases after elections."
Moreover, on the issue of "Israeli" spy Charbel Kazzi's release, the MP iterated, "There is no need to repeat our condemnation towards this behaviour," underscoring, "there are problems with the judicial conduct and its handling of cases on political grounds."

"When we speak, the other party does not wish to hear, and when we are silent, they conclude wrong implications, and that does not help build Lebanon's bases," Raad stated on former PM Saad Hariri's response to Hizbullah's Secretary-General His Eminence Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah's speech.

Furthermore, Mohammad Raad mentioned as to the US request in constructing a communications station in Lebanon that, "The Media and Communications Committee deliberated this matter and we wait for more details regarding this matter to release a stance."
