U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs David Welch has accused Hizbullah and elements from different nationalities of trying to tamper with Lebanon. He also told El Shark daily in remarks published Monday that the Bush administration, along with its "European partners" and Arab allies, was trying to put pressure on Syria so that it stops meddling in Lebanon's internal affairs. The U.S. was trying to extend help to Lebanon so that it rises "economically and politically," Welch said, adding that his country was also assisting the Lebanese army to keep security. He said Syria's interference in Lebanese politics was hindering the process of Lebanon's rise from the devastation of the 1975-1990 civil war. Asked whether Hizbullah was behind the bombing of the U.S. embassy in Beirut in 1983, Welch stressed that in addition to Hizbullah there are Saudis, Iraqis and terrorist elements from Pakistan trying to tamper with Lebanon and nail down its independence.
