The head of the Progressive Socialist Party, Walid Jumblatt, tweeted: "We have entered World War III, and we are at the beginning. Any miscalculations could lead to the extinction of humanity. It is well known that America wants to colonize the world and seeks this by all means at the expense of peoples. I wonder what happened between the Tsar of Russia and the Emperor of China. Do they want to divide what remains in their own way?"
