Qaouq: Lebanon Benefits the Most from Aleppo Victory

A senior Hizbullah official announced Sunday that “Lebanon is the side that benefits the most” from the Syrian regime's recapture of the northern city of Aleppo.

“Lebanon is the side that benefits the most from Syria's victory in Aleppo's battle, because its stability is directly linked to the outcome of the battle against takfiri terrorism in Mosul and Aleppo,” Sheikh Nabil Qaouq, the deputy head of Hizbullah's executive council, said.

“When the takfiri scheme suffers a defeat there, Lebanon becomes more secure, stable and immune to the threat of takfiri emirates and schemes,” Qaouq added.

He noted that “the achievements of the Syrian Arab Army and its allies in Syria have buried the scheme of federalist partition that was supported by the axis of Syria's enemies, preventing the removal of Syria from the axis of defiance and resistance.”

“The victory that has been achieved in Aleppo has settled Syria's identity and unity, buried the Saudi dreams of partitioning, and established new equations at the level of the region and the world,” Qaouq went on to say.

Hizbullah has sent thousands of fighters across the border to support President Bashar Assad's forces against an Islamist-led uprising and the group's instrumental help has helped the regime recapture several strategic areas from rebel hands.
