 TEHRAN – Former Lebanese president Emile Lahoud has said Iran has played a significant role in foiling evil plots in the region.“Fortunately, all efforts and plots by the U.S. and the Zionist regime have failed and the resistance movement is in a good situation in the region. Iran played an important role in foiling these conspiracies,” Lahoud told Iran’s ambassador to Beirut, Ghazanfar Roknabadi. Lahoud also thanked Iran for taking positive stances on Lebanon. He also welcomed Iran’s idea to hold an international conference in support of Palestinians’ rights, and said the move has greatly helped thwart the U.S. and Israel plots aimed at creating friction among regional countries. Roknabadi highlighted Iran’s support for Lebanon, saying the Islamic Republic will spare no effort in expanding relations with Lebanon. Roknabadi submitted a letter, written by Iranian Majlis Speaker Ali Larijani, to Lahoud, inviting him to attend the Fifth International Palestine Conference. The Fifth International Palestine Conference will be held October 1-2 in Tehran and will be attended by parliament speakers and representatives of Islamic countries, and a number of non-Islamic countries. The conference will be hosted by Iran’s Majlis (Parliament). -Sheikh Naeem thanks Iran for its stances on Palestine Sheikh Naeem Hassan of the Druze sect of Al-Mohadeen in Lebanon has thanked Iran for upholding the rights of nations, particularly Palestine. Sheikh Naeem made the remarks in a meeting with Roknabadi in Beirut on Tuesday. Roknabadi said Iran has made great progress in various spheres despite the fact that it has been under numerous sanctions. The country is ready to share its experience and knowledge of technology with Arab and Islamic countries, in particular, Lebanon, he added.
