Hezbollah Secretary General Seyyed Hasan Nasrallah said Friday that “Regardless of the fate of the Iranian nuclear deal, Hezbollah will insist on the Lebanese maritime rights and borders.”
At the start of his speech at the “Hezbollah laying foundation stone ceremony of jihadi, touristic landmark in Bekaa’s Janta” on Friday, Nasrallah welcomed the participants in the ceremony and offers condolences on the death of the mother of the martyr Ahmad Kassir.
Hezbollah Secretary General also condoled and congratulated the family of the Palestinian martyr Ibrahim Al-Nabulsi.
He also said, “Establishing a landmark in Bekaa is the minimum way of expressing gratitude to that region and its locals.”
Nasrallah went on to say “Upon the Israeli invasion in 1982, Iran dispatched an IRGC unit to help the Lebanese fight the occupation.”
Janta hosted the first military camps where the Islamic Resistance fighters were trained, the Hezbollah chief said, adding “Several Iranian martyrs were claimed by the Israeli air raids on Janta military camps in the 1980.”
“Regardless of the fate of the Iranian nuclear deal, Hezbollah will insist on the Lebanese maritime rights and borders,” according to Nasrallah.

Elsewhere, Nasrallah said that “Customs exchange rate against US dollar in Lebanon must not be raised at once to 20,000 L.L.”

“Escalation is inevitable if the Israeli enemy denies Lebanon’s maritime rights,” Nasrallah underscored.
According to a report, Hezbollah Secretary General Sayyed Hasan Nasrallah stressed on Friday that the destiny of the Iranian nuclear deal does not affect Lebanon’s maritime border demarcation file, adding that the Islamic Resistance stance will not change regardless of the outcomes of the ongoing talks between Iran and the world powers.
Addressing Hezbollah laying foundation stone ceremony of a jihadi, touristic landmark in Bekaa’s Janta, Sayyed Nasrallah said,”Lebanon’s oil and gas resources and the disputable zone in Karish will not be affected by whether the nuclear deal will be signed or not.”
Critizing the Lebanese political forces falsely accusing Hezbollah of linking the maritime border file to the nuclear deal, Sayyed Nasrallah added that the US mediator Amos Hochstein is wasting time and that the remaining time is getting shorter.
“If Lebanon secures its rights, calm will be maintained; however, escalation will be inevitable if Lebanon’s rights are denied,” his eminence added.
Sayyed Nasrallah underscored the importance of continuing exerting efforts to form the new Lebanese government, stressing that the customs exchange rate against US dollar in Lebanon must not be raised at once to 20,000 L.L.

“This heroic stance is one of the resistance facets and confirms that the Lebanese resistance is cross-sectarian,” Sayyed Nasrallah said, addressing Charbel and his family to express pride of his stance.
