"The aggression of the occupying [Israeli] regime and Trump’s statements indicate their interference in the affairs of countries. The remarks of the United States president to forcibly displace the people of Gaza and take over the Palestinian land are unacceptable, and the Zionist regime is also seeking to violate the ceasefire,” the speaker said.

He made the comments in a meeting with Lebanon’s President Joseph Aoun in Beirut, according to a press release by the official website of the Iranian Parliament.

Qalibaf further said that the Islamic Republic of Iran supports the Lebanese government, people, and resistance. He highlighted the importance of Lebanon’s reconstruction, which he said will be pursued in cooperation with Qatar, Kuwait, Iraq, and other Islamic nations.
