Lebanon's PM says resignation his own decision

Lebanon's Prime Minister Saad Hariri says his resignation was his decision, dismissing reports he was forced to quit a unity government with his rival Hezbollah militant group.

 

Speaking Sunday in a live interview to his station Future TV, Hariri held back tears. He said his resignation was designed to "cause a positive shock" in the country, warning against Iranian interference that is, he said, ruining relations with other Arab countries.

 

Hariri said he "can't be the only one making concessions while the others do whatever they want."
