A senior diplomat criticized as “impulsive and provocative” the Saudi-led move by blocs of Arab states to brand Lebanon’s resistance movement, Hezbollah, a terrorist organization. “Saudi Arabia’s anti-Hezbollah move is against peace, stability andsecurity of Lebanon,” Deputy Foreign Minister for Arab and African Affairs Hossein Amir-Abdollahian told state television on Monday. Amir-Abdollahian added that Riyadh has been conducting “hasty and unbalanced” moves in the region in recent months.
