| 2008-04-18 |
| Iran said Thursday that it "highly values ... the precious viewpoints" of Free Patriotic Movement leader Michel Aoun. The stand was outlined by Iran's Ambassador to Lebanon Ali Shibani after visiting Aoun at the latter's residence in suburban Rabiyeh, north of Beirut. Shibani said Aoun briefed him on his viewpoints "on the best ways leading to finding an exit out of this political crisis." The two, according to the Iranian diplomat, reviewed "latest developments related to the nuclear file, in addition to the ongoing developments in Iraq." Shibani said Iran belongs "to the Middle East and the Islamic region's fabric." He said "strangers ... should be asked to stop interfering in the affairs of Muslims and Arabs." Shibani said the "ongoing political crisis should not be linked to the conflicting viewpoints between Iran and the United States." |
