Iran rejects Lebanon’s accusation of interference in its affairs: FM spokesman

Iran denied Monday an accusation from Lebanese Prime Minister Najib Mikati that it was interfering in Beirut’s internal affairs over remarks attributed to Tehran’s speaker of parliament.

“Iran has never had any intention or (taken any) action that could be suspected of interfering in the internal affairs of Lebanon,” said Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman Esmaeil Baghaei during a weekly news conference.
