It’s Lebanon’s, Not Israel’s Foreign Minister!: Hezbollah Lawmaker Calls on President, PM to Take Measures

It is unprecedented that a foreign minister in the government of a certain country grants its enemy a pretext to attack it. However, the militiaman Youssef Rajji, who has always voiced pride in being a member of the Lebanese Forces Party involved in slaughtering the Lebanese civilians and servicemen in the 1975-1990 civil war, breached all the limits and approached the role of the Zionist FM Gideon Saar.

Named by his militia’s leader Samir Geagea to be a foreign minister, Rajji has never performed professionally, yet has always taken the side of justifying the Israeli aggression on Lebanon.

Instead of condemning the Zionist attacks on Lebanon, the so-called Lebanese foreign minister has always blamed the Lebanese resistance force without even filing complaints with the United Nations Security Council in most of the cases of Israeli attacks.

In details, the ceasefire agreement, which took effect on November 27, 2024, stipulated the Israeli halt of attacks on Lebanon. However, Rajji insists on holding the Resistance responsible for the Zionist criminality hitting the Lebanese civilians.

Rajji’s grudge against the Lebanese resistance justifies all the Zionist violations and disregards even the UNIFIL statements which blames the Israeli side for numerous attacks.

In response, MP Ali Ammar, member of Loyalty to Resistance bloc, blasted Rajji’s remarks, calling on the President of the Republic and the Prime Minister to take the necessary measures against Rajji.

Rajji’s irresponsible statement and decline in discourse by an official harms the Lebanese state and further damages its image and dignity in the eyes of its people, MP Ammar added.
