BEIRUT: The Progressive Socialist Party has "excellent" relations with Hezbollah, party leader Walid Jumblatt said Wednesday after meeting with a delegation from the group.
“Our relationship with Hezbollah is excellent,” Jumblatt told reporters following the meeting at his Beirut home with a delegation headed by Mohammad Raad, the leader of the party’s bloc in Parliament.
The PSP chief said that Wednesday’s meeting “was not the first” and “wouldn’t be the last."
Raad, whose party has had on-again off-again relations with Jumblatt, said that “the atmosphere [of the meeting] was positive.”
“We are looking toward opening windows that would take Lebanon out of its current gridlock,” he added.
