Britain is willing to step-up contact with Hizbullah as they begin to play a bigger role in Lebanon's government, Foreign Secretary David Miliband told The Daily Star in an exclusive interview. Miliband told the paper this week he believed "carefully considered contact with Hizbullah's politicians, including its MPs, will best advance our objective of the group rejecting violence to play a constructive role in Lebanese politics."
