"Parliamentray elections will be held on time in 2009, and according to the electoral law we have agreed upon during the Doha Agreement, even though it will not be approved until September 25," he said.
He added that no Lebanese party had an interest in, or was capable of, delaying the electoral law's approval because postponement could lead to complications.
He noted that it was necessity to work with the cabinet in order to face economic and social problems and confirmed that Hizbullah would develop its role within the government in order to carry out its responsibilities, even though this cabinet will only last until the 2009 elections.
