Najib Miqati announced that the Lebanese state is more powerful than all Lebanese parties, including Hizbullah, while condemning its involvement in the fighting in Syria, reported CNN television.He told the television in an interview aired on Friday that Hizbullah's priority at the moment lies in supporting the Syrian regime.
"We demand that no Lebanese side, whether it backs or opposes the regime, interfere in the Syrian crisis because that will have negative repercussions on Leb," he added.
Hizbullah has its priorities and at the moment they include supporting the regime, Miqati said.
He noted however that the party will soon realize that protecting Leb should be the most important goal.
"Our meddling in Syria will not change anything, but it will only negatively impact us," remarked the caretaker premier.
"My greatest concern is not the Syrian crisis itself, but the ongoing flow of refugees into Leb," he revealed.
He noted that some 550,000 refugees have been registered in Leb, without counting the ones that have not been recorded, which amount to some 750,000.
"These figures are too great for us to handle and we call on the international community and aid organizations to help Leb," Miqati stated.
