Ahmadinejad urges national unity, peaceful coexistence in Lebanon

Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has stressed the importance of strengthening national unity and peaceful coexistence in Lebanon.
According to Press TV, Ahmadinejad said in a Wednesday message to Lebanese President Michel Suleiman on the occasion of the Lebanese Independence Day: “Lebanon can undoubtedly take further steps toward achieving national goals and ideals as well as growth and development with national unity and peaceful coexistence among different tribes.”
The Iranian chief executive expressed hope that stability, security and development would be established in Lebanon through the wise management by the Lebanese president, and other senior officials and various political groups.
Meanwhile, in a message to his Lebanese counterpart Nabih Berri, Iran’s Majlis Speaker Ali Larijani hoped that Lebanon’s officials would pay heed to the country’s important role in regional equations and disappoint the enemies from hatching plots.
Larijani said: “Under the circumstances where the conditions of the region have become complicated and ambiguous due to the interference of global and arrogant powers, the necessity for all countries in the region – particularly those which are on the front line of the resistance – to remain vigilant is felt more than before.”
He added that the Lebanese people and government play a vital role in this regard.
