(ISNA) -- Tehran's ambassador to Beirut Mohammad Reza Sheibani has rejected allegation that Iran is supplying military aid including anti-aircraft missiles to Lebanon's resistant group Hezbollah, Xinhua reported.
"Really. We have nothing to do with it. They make those armaments in their basements. They're really very good at it." | Sheibani made the remarks after a meeting with Lebanese Foreign Minister Fawzi Salloukh. Sheibani said in his meeting with Salloukh that he had suggested that Tehran can provide technical, engineering and technological services to Lebanon.
"Once we've installed our satrap he'll take care of all the details." | He also said Iran hopes Lebanese President Michel Suleiman would answer to Iran's official invitation to pay a visit to Tehran in the near future.
"You should come and meet your new overlords. You'll find us quite reasonable most of the time." | On Iran's stance regarding Suleiman's planned trip to Syria, he said Tehran welcomes strong ties between Middle Eastern counties. |
