Iranian Foreign Minister Hussein Amir Abdollahian arrived from the Russian capital on an official visit to Beirut late Wednesday.
Upon arrival at Beirut International Airport, the Iranian diplomat conveyed greetings of Iranian President Ibrahim Raisi “to the dear Lebanese people, the gallant Resistance, and the brotherly Lebanese government.”
He also congratulated the “brotherly Lebanese people on forming the new government.”
“In this visit, I would like to announce a frank and firm position that the Islamic Republic of Iran, as it always did, will stand firmly by the side of the brotherly Lebanese Republic in order to break the unjust siege that it is subjected to at such a sensitive stage in its history. Iran will spare no effort in providing assistance and supporting Lebanon,” he confirmed.
“We are fully confident that just as the honorable Lebanese people were able to overcome the difficult stages they went through before, God willing, they will also be able at this stage to overcome the difficulties they are experiencing,” Abdollahian concluded.
