Lebanon's Hezbollah says does not want government to resign

Lebanon's Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah said on Saturday that the group was not demanding the government's resignation amid widespread national protests.

 

Nasrallah said in a televised speech that he supported the government, but called for a new agenda and "new spirit," adding that ongoing protests showed the way forward was not new taxes.

 

Any tax imposed on the poor would push him to call supporters to go take to the streets, Nasrallah added.
