Hezbollah on Lebanon Constitution Centenary: No Decision Can Delegitimize Resistance

On the centenary of the Lebanese Constitution, Hezbollah called for cancelling political sectarianism and to fully implement the Taif Agreement and the constitutional provisions as well as to safeguard Lebanon from aggression.

Hawzah News Agency- In a statement, Hezbollah said: “On the centenary of the Constitution, the Lebanese find themselves at a pivotal moment, both domestically and regionally, one that calls more than ever for strict adherence to the Lebanese Constitution as amended by the Taif Agreement. This constitutional framework remains the binding reference for managing political differences, organizing state institutions, and preserving national unity and sovereignty''.

In this context, the Lebanese resistance group stressed the need to definitively close the chapter of mandates, high commissioners, and all forms of foreign tutelage, affirming that such an era has ended and cannot be revived in Lebanon under any guise or circumstance.

“Lebanon, as enshrined in its Constitution, is the final homeland for all its people—united in land, population, and institutions—within its constitutionally and internationally recognized borders,” the statement, released by Hezbollah’s Media Relations Department read.

It added that Lebanon cannot become a true final homeland for its people through slogans alone, “but through safeguarding its land and citizens, and through a clear national consensus that rejects occupation and aggression''.

All projects that aim at fragmentation, division, federalization, or resettlement run contrary to the core principles of the Lebanese Constitution and to the very concept of a unified Lebanon, equal for all its citizens without exception, Hezbollah affirmed.

It stressed that resisting occupation and aggression “is not an act of rebellion against the state nor a breach of the Constitution; rather, it is a legitimate national right affirmed by the principles of the Lebanese Constitution and supported by Lebanon’s Arab and international commitments''.

“No political or governmental decision can deprive a people of their inherent right to defend their land, nor can it delegitimize resistance to occupation''.
