Larijani pointed out that President Berri provided good details during the meeting, stressing that the main goal of his visit is to express his country’s stand by Lebanon’s government, army and resistance against the aggression of the criminal entity and in all circumstances.

Larijani also met with the head of the caretaker government, Najib Mikati, and said: “Iran supports any decision taken by the government, especially Resolution 1701, and also supports the election of any president that the Lebanese agree on.

For his part, Mikati said:” What is required is to support the position of the Lebanese state regarding the implementation of international Resolution No. 1701 and support national unity”. He stated that the Lebanese government gives priority to stopping the Israeli aggression on Lebanon and reaching a ceasefire and implementing Resolution 1701 in full without any modifications or interpretations contrary to the content and intent of the resolution”.
