Lebanese Forces leader Samir Geagea said Monday that any danger threatening Lebanon was the result of Hezbollah and its ties with Iran.

He told the Qatari al-Watan newspaper that putting the strategic decision of defending Lebanon in the hand of the government was the only way to keep the country away from dangers.

“Not a single state in the world that respects itself would accept” the transfer of arms to a certain party without the knowledge of the government, Geagea said.
