In a meeting with Lebanon’s Speaker of Parliament, Nabih Berri on May 22, 2024, Leader of the Islamic Revolution, Imam Khamenei expressed his gratitude for the Lebanese government and nation’s condolences during this bitter and tragic incident. “The declaration of public mourning in Lebanon highlights the perfect companionship between the two countries. We view our relationship with our Lebanese brothers and Sayyid Hassan Nasrallah as one of kinship and brotherhood,” he remarked.
He described the recent incident as a loss of a prominent figure. “This incident is difficult for us, but by the grace of God, the Iranian nation will use such bitter events as opportunities, just as it has turned challenging incidents into opportunities in previous years.”
While referring to the Iranian nation’s massive turnout in the funeral procession of the late President and his entourage, the Leader of the Islamic Republic stated, “Praise God, our nation is determined and awakened. Our faith in the Almighty God is strong, and our reliance on Him is immense. God willing, the Iranian nation will benefit and make use of this incident.”
Imam Khamenei also expressed his satisfaction with the existing solidarity between the Resistance groups in Lebanon and affirmed Mr. Nabih Berri’s remarks regarding the “existential battle” in the region.
The Leader of the Islamic Revolution emphasized, “Lebanon’s involvement in the recent issues of Palestine and Gaza has had a profound impact. If such measures had not been undertaken, the greatest damage would definitely have been inflicted on Lebanon itself.”
Mr. Nabih Berri, Speaker of the Lebanese Parliament, expressed the sadness and deep sorrow of both the Lebanese people and government regarding the recent incident. “We consider the wounds and injuries of our Iranian brothers as our own, and it was our duty to be present in Tehran as representatives of the government and people of Lebanon,” he said.
