Hezbollah Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem on Thursday said that “resistance and reform are inseparable twins.”

“Let everyone know that resistance and reform are inseparable twins, and he who thinks that [Hezbollah] is a resistance that does not care about reform is wrong,” the National News Agency quoted Qassem as saying.

Qassem also called on the government to address social issues and “offer more accomplishments that serve the interests of citizens.”

“We shall remember that the failure and violations of previous governments have accumulated [until now], and we should not blame the current government for these violations.”

The current cabinet, which is dominated by the March 8 coalition and headed by PM Najib Mikati was formed and granted parliament’s vote of confidence on July 7.
