BEIRUT, Feb. 16 (Xinhua) -- The leader of Lebanon's Hezbollah warned on Sunday that the U.S. Middle East peace plan, known as the Deal of the Century, will have a huge negative impact on Lebanon, TV Channel Al Manar reported.
"This deal will give Shebaa Farms, Kfarchouba Hills and Ghajar village to Israel ... and deprive Lebanon of its total rights in the oil and gas wealth," Hassan Nasrallah said in a televised speech remembering the martyrs of the resistance.
Nasrallah also criticized the idea of supporting the U.S. peace plan in exchange for its financial support, saying the plan is a strategy adopted by Israel to end the Palestinian cause.
"Israel and the United States stand behind all wars taking place in the region," he noted.
