US intervention has undermined Lebanon’s stability: Iran envoy
TEHRAN, Jan. 13 (MNA) -- Iran’s Ambassador to Lebanon Ghazanfar Roknabadi commented on the reasons behind the failure of international efforts to bring stability to Lebanon.
“U.S. intervention has resulted in the failure of efforts made to bring peace and stability to Lebanon,” Roknabadi told on Wednesday in response to the news that the Syria-Saudi Arabia initiative aimed at restoring stability in Lebanon has failed.
According to the Bloomberg, Lebanese lawmaker Michel Aoun said on Tuesday that the Saudi-Syrian drive to resolve controversy over a United Nations tribunal investigating the 2005 killing of Rafiq Hariri has failed.
In the wake of this development, ministers representing Hezbollah movement and its allies announced that they plan to quit cabinet, a move that may topple the government of the U.S.-backed Prime Minister Saad Hariri and again throw the country into disarray.
Roknabadi said that the U.S. government did not favor the establishment of peace and stability in Lebanon, so tried to obstruct the measures aimed at achieving stability in Lebanon.
“The Americans and Israelis have always sought to undermine the regional peace, and since the time this plan (Saudi-Syrian initiative) was proposed for Lebanon’s stability made efforts to sabotage the plan and apparently have been successful (to achieve their goals),” he stated.
