Hezbollah says negotiations with Israel would bring shame to Lebanon

Hezbollah says negotiations with Israel would bring shame to Lebanon Hezbollah leader Naim Qassem has said on Tuesday that direct negotiations between Lebanon and Israel would bring "nothing but shame, humiliation, and successive compromises" for Lebanon. In a televised address, Qassem said Lebanon's President Joseph Aoun "has not acted as an arbiter, nor as a unifying figure, but has become biased and divisive, which is incompatible with his role and with Lebanon's strength".
