Head of Loyalty to Resistance parliamentary bloc MP Mohammad Raad on Wednesday reiterated commitment to the nomination of Head of Marada Movement Sleiman Franjiyeh for presidency, adding that acts of provocation can just elongate the presidential vacuum.

Addressing an educational ceremony in Beirut, MP Raad stressed that Hezbollah supports the candidate that is trustworthy and does not backstab the Resistance.

Hezbollah Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem had stressed Tuesday that the dialogue is the only way to end the presidential vacuum, adding that the dialogue has to be held without any preconditions.

Sheikh Qassem affirmed none can impose a confrontational candidate for presidency.

For his part, member of Loyalty to Resistance bloc, MP Hasan Fadlallah, indicated that the constitutional choices Hezbollah and allies will resort to in the vote session are many, adding that the dialogue among the various blocs can provide a resolution for the presidential deadlock.

It’s worth noting that Speaker Berri called for a session on 14 June to vote for a new president.
