NNA - Our main concern is to safeguard national unity and security incumbent on the military alone, minister of Agriculture Husein Hajj-Hasan told a joint Iraqi/Lebanese working session between unions in both countries at a Hizbullah office in Hirmel today.



Hajj-Hasan stressed need for enhanced cooperation between Iraqi and Lebanese unionists to promote interactive agricultural and unionist exchange.



He reiterated Hizbullah's constant policy for self-bolstering in terms of further hoarding of arms to confront any challenges and for years ahead. Hajj-Hasan condemned what he termed as "sectarian strife in Arab countries "and deplored "infidels" bent on pitting Sunni Muslims against Shias and insisted on Palestine as party's central cause.
