Beirut Friday Prayer Leader: We Are Proud Of Supporting Iran

Beirut, Dec 22, IRNA – Beirut Friday Prayer Leader Seyyed Ali Fadlallah said on Friday that the Islamic Republic of Iran puts the issue of Palestine at top of its agenda which makes its supporters proud of backing the country. The prominent Lebanese figure made the remarks in a meeting with Iran's Ambassador to Beirut Ghazanfar Rokn Abadi at Iran's embassy in Beirut. In the meeting, the two sides reviewed regional developments as well as those of Lebanon. Highlighting Iran's leading role in regional developments, he said maintaining unity is regarded as the most important issue under the current circumstances. The Islamic Republic of Iran played significant role in spiriting up the nations in the region, he said. Highlighting regional developments, the Iranian ambassador for his part, referred to Iran's six-point plan to help resolve Syrian crisis. The six-point plan seeks the cease of violence and conflicts and underlines that the issue has to be merely solved through talks between the opposition groups and Syrian government to help hold parliamentary and presidential elections in Syria. The problem has roots in mal-performance and dissemination of fabricated news by those trying to distort or exaggerate realities, he said. Iran's six-point plan fully considers this point and tries to closely pursue the country's developments, he said./end
