Former Syrian Vice President Abdel Halim Khaddam stated in an interview with the Saudi newspaper “Al-Watan” that “if Iran fails in Syria, the survival of Hezbollah will not last more than two months, and the militias it supports will face the same fate.” He affirmed his knowledge of “the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri two weeks before the operation was carried out,” accusing the Syrian president of its execution.
Khaddam praised the “efforts of Saudi Arabia in supporting Arab peoples,” adding, “Saudi Arabia is the country that can lend a hand to all Arab peoples, and we reject any insult directed at it.” He emphasized that “the U.S.-Iranian rapprochement will not work because Tehran does not commit and will not offer anything.”
