Hezbollah Deputy Secretary General Sheikh Naim Qassem on Thursday called for dialogue and understanding to settle the current crisis in Lebanon, local Naharnet news website reported.
In a press conference, Qassem said the group favors a settlement for Lebanon crisis on the basis of "no victor, no vanquished."
"We need a settlement with no winner or loser, but with participation," Qassem was quoted as saying, adding that "this is a new phase that should be characterized by dialogue and understanding in order to reach a solution."
He stressed that his party wants to return things to normal after the government revoked two measures that triggered six days of bloodshed.
He said the upcoming Arab-countries sponsored inter-Lebanese dialogue would tackle formation of a new government and elections law.
Hezbollah and its allies were engaged in fierce clashes with pro-government supporters last week, following government decisions to probe Hezbollah's private communication network and remove airport security chief for alleged links to the group.
Lebanon is facing the most complicated political crisis since 1975-1990 civil war. Lebanese political rival groups were unable to achieve a breakthrough to elect a new president for the country, which has been without a president since Nov. 24, 2007 when ex-President Emile Lahoud ended his term.
