Report: Iran tells Berri Hezbollah's stances are electoral
Speaker Nabih Berri has received new messages indicating that Tehran does not intend to escalate in Lebanon and that Hezbollah’s latest stances are related to the Lebanese political life, the PSP’s al-Anbaa news portal reported on Tuesday.
Hezbollah’s new positions are linked to “the need of each group to mobilize its supporters until the final course of the parliamentary elections becomes clear,” seeing us the upcoming polls will “reflect the sizes of the domestic forces and the balances of the coming political period,” Tehran was quoted as telling Berri.
Berri’s political aide MP Ali Hassan Khalil had visited Tehran in recent days where he met with Iranian Supreme National Security Council chief Ali Larijani, Shoura Council Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf and Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi.
“The situation in the South was the focus of discussions,” media reports said.
