Beirut - Iranian Foreign Minister said Tehran supports Lebanon to put pressure on Israel to end military seats in parts of the country, including diplomatic moves to “expel the occupiers.”

Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi added on Tuesday that Iran is looking forward to relations with Lebanon based on mutual respect in the new situation after the Israel-Helsa War.

Araghchi's visit comes after Hezbollah, the main Lebanese ally of Iran, was weakened by a 14-month war with Israel, killed most of the Iranian-backed political and military leadership.

Araghchi's visit was his first since October, which ended a month later with a ceasefire from the American agents at the height of the Israel-Hezbollah war. The war killed more than 4,000 people in Lebanon and displaced one million people, causing the World Bank to say it would continue to use $11 billion in sales in the reconstruction.

Since the end of the war, Army Commander Joseph Aoun has been elected president and famous jurist, and diplomat Nawaf Salam has become the country's prime minister. Both Aoun and Salam repeatedly stated that only states can monopolize the use of weapons in Lebanon.

The visit also followed the removal of Syrian President Bashar Assad's government in December by insurgent groups against Iran's influence in the region. Assad is one of Tehran’s closest allies, and his country is the main link in the movement of weapons from Iran to Hezbollah.

Aoun told visiting Iranian officials during the meeting that Beirut wanted to "strengthen relations with the Iranian state." Aoun's comments were posted by his office.

Over the past few decades, Iran has funded Hezbollah with billions of dollars and sent various weapons to the Lebanese group, enjoying a wide range of influence in small Mediterranean countries.

Since the end of the Israel-Hebra war, Lebanese authorities have taken strict measures at Beirut airports to prevent the flow of funds from Iran to Hezbollah and were suspended by Iranian companies to Beirut.

“We look forward to establishing relations with Lebanon (with Lebanon) in the internal affairs of each country,” Araghchi told reporters after meeting with Parliament Speaker Nabih Berri. He added that Iran had a national dialogue in Lebanon between rival groups.

Aragic said Iran condemned the occupation of Lebanese territory by Zionist entities and supported all efforts by the Lebanese government and people to expel the occupiers through any means, including diplomatic methods. ”

Aragic said that if the Lebanese government wants it, Iranian companies are ready to participate in the reconstruction of Lebanon.

Earlier on Tuesday, Araghchi held talks with his Lebanese counterpart, Rajji, and discussed ongoing negotiations between Iran and the United States on Tehran’s nuclear program.
