The top Iranian diplomat met with Lebanese Parliament Speaker Nabi Beli on the continuation of the meeting in Beirut that arrived on Tuesday.
Before meeting with the speakers, Araguchi had discussions with Lebanese counterparts Youssef Rajji and President Joseph Aoun.
After arriving in Lebanon, the Iranian foreign minister, who traveled to Cairo, Egypt, said, “My trip to Beirut is a continuation of regional travel. We are determined to continue our relationship with Lebanon based on mutual interest and respect.”
Aragut explains Lebanon’s “independence, sovereignty and territorial integrity” as “important” to Iran and the region as a whole, adding that the blame for the Iranian Zionist regime’s occupation actually supports a friendly country, adding that Iran’s support does not necessarily mean foreign interference.
He emphasized that “countries in this region have no right to interfere with the operations of other countries.”
