TEHRAN - Rapprochement between Iran and Egypt will benefit the Islamic world and Iran’s relations with Arabs, Lebanon’s senior religious leader Mohammad Hussein Fadlallah said in a meeting with Iran’s Ambassador to Beirut Mohammad Reza Sheibani on Thursday.
He also appreciated Iran for its constructive role in bringing together various Lebanese groups.Fadlullah and Sheibani held talk about Iran’s nuclear dossier and the recent U.S. threats against the country.
The U.S. and Israel sought to impose new sanctions against Iran but they were badly disappointed when the International Atomic Energy Agency declared that Iran’s nuclear program had not diverted toward non-peaceful purposes, Fadlullah noted
