Raad: Hizbullah Willing to Compromise on False Witnesses' Issue

Head of Hizbullah's Loyalty to the Resistance parliamentary bloc MP Mohammed Raad said Hizbullah was willing to compromise on the false witnesses' issue, but warned that Hizbullah is a "red line that cannot be bypassed."

He confirmed the existence of a "plan for a solution" being mulled by Syria and Saudi Arabia to find a way out of the Lebanon crisis.

"We as Hizbullah are part of the Opposition and we will discuss with our allies the concessions that can be offered if the solution is convincing," Raad said in an interview published Wednesday by the daily As-Safir.

He said any settlement, however, must "maintain the existence of the Resistance and protect it against the Israeli enemy."

Raad said the majority March 14 coalition also has to find a way to "liberate Lebanon from the claws of the politicized international tribunal."
