Beirut: Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah wants reconciliation talks with Lebanese parliamentary leader Saad Hariri, according to comments published on Monday.
"I have said that I am ready to sit down with him—there's no disagreement about the principle of a meeting, only about the venue," newspapers quoted Nasrallah as saying.
"Our head-to-head has not taken place because of the security concerns facing both him and me," he added.
Israeli leaders have threatened to assassinate Nasrallah, whose fighters clashed with Israel in the 2006 war in Lebanon.
Nasrallah said that reconciliation between Hariri's Sunni-led bloc and the Shiite-led opposition was in the interests of Hezbollah in its resistance to Israel.
"We are ready to turn the page on the past and heal all of the scars. We are ready for any dialogue as it holds no fears for us," Nasrallah said.
