BEIRUT, Feb 28 (Reuters) - Lebanese Prime Minister Nawaf Salam on Saturday said he would not accept anyone dragging "the country into adventures that threaten its security and unity", in an indirect message to the Iran-backed Lebanese armed group Hezbollah.
“In light of the serious developments unfolding in the region, I once again call on all Lebanese to act with wisdom and patriotism, placing Lebanon and the Lebanese people’s interests above any other consideration," Salam said in a statement sent to Reuters.
"I reiterate that we will not accept anyone dragging the country into adventures that threaten its security and unity."
