The Lebanese defense minister has said his recent visit to Iran came off well.
Samir Moqbel said on Thursday that he held positive negotiations with President Hassan Rouhani, among other Iranian political and military officials, during his visit last week, Press TV reported. The Lebanese official also said a major objective of his visit was to discuss Iran’s proposal on the unconditional military aid to Lebanon’s armed forces with the aim of boosting the country’s defense against terror threats. The Lebanese army command is considering Iran’s proposed list of arms, Moqbel said, adding that the aid needs the approval of the Lebanese cabinet.
