Hezbollah Expresses Approval of Aoun’s Visit
December 5th, the Lebanese pro-Syrian Shiite group Hezbollah voiced its approval of Christian opposition Leader Michel Aoun’s trip to Syria. Hezbollah’s parliamentarians expressed their excitement as from their perspective Aoun engaged Syria and approached it with the right outlook instead of repeating some of the mistakes of the past. This was a historic trip because of Aoun’s previous vehement disagreement with Hezbollah ideologies; however since Syria’s pull-out in 2005, both sides have come together as allies with visions for the future for both Lebanon and Syria.
