Zahra: Ahmadinejad Adopted Hizbullah's Position towards STL

Lebanese Forces MP Antoine Zahra noted on Thursday that Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad adopted Hizbullah's position towards the Special Tribunal for Lebanon in that he viewed it as a political tool being used against the party.

He told Voice of Lebanon radio that the Iranian leader's visit took on two facets, the first, where he visited the Lebanese state, was distinguished with seriousness and moderation, the second, where he visited Dahiyeh, was distinguished by his adoption of Hizbullah's views.

"We will wait and see whether Ahmadinejad's visit to southern Lebanon will respect Lebanon's sovereignty or whether it will increase the tensions between his country and Israel," the MP added.
