The Speaker of the Iranian Parliament, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf, on the cease-fire agreement in Lebanon:
"What Islamic country is indifferent to this issue? Right now the whole world is standing up against their crimes in Gaza, Palestine and Lebanon.
In this last war when Israel attacked us, the people of Lebanon and the Shiites of Lebanon shed blood like us. Protecting them is, of course, our humanitarian and Islamic duty.
We do it when they invade Lebanon. We responded to Israel from Iranian territory and attacked them. We said, "You have no right. Residents of Lebanon. In South Lebanon there are both Muslims and Christians. This is their land. ".
Then, in the agreements we signed, the Americans, Mr. Trump, signed and agreed to establish a ceasefire on Lebanese soil, to withdraw and recognize the sovereignty of the Lebanese government on its soil. ".
