The leader of Hezbollah says the results of the US presidential election will have no impact on any possible ceasefire deal to end the Israel-Hezbollah war.
“We don’t base our expectations for a halt of the aggression on political developments… Whether [Kamala] Harris wins or [Donald] Trump wins, it means nothing to us,” Naim Qassem says in a pre-recorded speech before Trump announced his victory.
