The Secretary-General of "Hezbollah," Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, called on the government to take responsibility towards the people, regardless of the difficulties, emphasizing that "the parliament must not be paralyzed, and at a minimum, essential legislations should be addressed." He noted at the end of the Ashura procession in southern Beirut that "opening the door for serious bilateral dialogues could provide a way out of the deadlock regarding the presidential elections, and this is what we are working on; we hope to reach a result."
He stated: "Lebanon is the one being wronged, and Israel continues to occupy part of our land, having re-occupied part of Ghajar and speaking shamelessly about provocations. O Zionists, beware of any folly or options; the resistance will not waver in any of its responsibilities, neither in deterrence nor in liberation, and it will be ready for any choice and will not remain silent about any foolishness."
Nasrallah also stressed that "Sweden, Denmark, and the entire world must understand that we are a nation that does not tolerate insults to its sanctities. For hundreds of years, we have rejected this oppression and aggression. If there are nations that do not care or are not affected when their symbols and sanctities are insulted, treating this aggression with indifference, a nation of a billion Muslims will not accept this persistence in attacking the Holy Quran."
In his speech, he mentioned that "in Denmark, the Quran was burned again, and shoes were placed on the Quran. When some came to defend this Quran, they were beaten and humiliated. This is an aggression against Islam and against two billion Muslims in this world." He called on Islamic countries at the upcoming meeting of their foreign ministers to take decisive and firm stances, stating that any repeated aggression will be met with economic and political boycott.
