TEHRAN (Basirat) :Lebanon and Iraq have supported Iran at a preliminary foreign ministerial meeting of an Arab League summit in Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia and its Arab and non-Arab allies believe that Lebanon and Iraq are
Iran’s backyard and their sovereignty is violated by the Islamic Republic.However, the representatives of Beirut and Baghdad were the only ones who
opposed an anti-Iran provision in a statement issued at the end of the recent
ministerial meeting of the Arab League Summit in Dhahran.The provision accused Iran of interfering in Arab countries’ affairs.This comes as the Saudi government is seeking to make Arab League member states
align themselves with Riyadh when it comes to anti-Iran measures.The 29th Arab League Summit is scheduled to kick off in the Saudi city of
Dhahran on April 15, 2018.The event was originally slated to be held in Riyadh, but the venue was
relocated to Dhahran after Yemeni troops and Ansarullah fighters targeted the
Saudi capital with missiles.
