Israel, Terrorism Threatening Middle East: Lebanese PM

Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri says the Israeli regime and terrorism are the two dangers currently threatening Lebanon and the entire Middle East.

“Two dangers, namely the Zionist regime of Israel and terrorism, are threatening Lebanon and the region,” Hariri said in a Tuesday meeting with Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Arab and African Affairs Hossein Jaberi Ansari in Beirut.

The Lebanese premier further noted cooperation and partnership among Lebanon’s different political groups is the main driving force behind the Lebanese government’s recent accomplishments.

“We are determined to continue this approach,” he went on to say.
