Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri met Wednesday in Ain el-Tineh with the deputy speaker of Iran’s parliament, Hamid Reza Haji Babaei, who was accompanied by a delegation.
“It was an opportunity for us to affirm, through our visit to His Excellency Speaker Nabih Berri, our support and endorsement of Lebanese national unity, solidarity and unity among all segments of the dear Lebanese people,” Babaei said.
“We emphasized the necessity of non-interference by foreign powers in the internal affairs of this brotherly country. There is no doubt that the Islamic Republic of Iran supports any matter or decision taken by our Lebanese brothers,” he added, noting that the government’s latest decisions indicate that “political wisdom” has triumphed.
