Lahoud denies American threats against Syria

Lebanese President Emile Lahoud denounced on Monday the threats delivered by the countries participating in the aggression on Iraq especially U.S.A against Syria and Lebanon. Lahoud said, during a meeting with Lebanese political officials, that these threats are a part of similar campaigns by Israel and another by its allies that target the "two brotherly countries" to affect their pan- Arab stances that reject the killing and destruction.

Lahoud asserted that the dangerous aspect which the U.S-British aggression has chosen after 12 days from the launching the attacks, suggests an immediate international movement to halt this aggression and to concord with the international law.
