March 14: Iran Should Take Care of its Internal Affairs Instead of Ruining Arab States
The March 14 General Secretariat renewed on Wednesday its commitment to the values proposed by the March 14 forces to Prime Minister-designate Najib Miqati, repeating its support to the Special Tribunal for Lebanon.
It said after its weekly meeting: “The STL is a central part of the Lebanese state’s commitment to protect its citizens and leaders of free thought from political assassination.”
It also repeated its commitment to “tackle the distribution of Hizbullah’s arms throughout Lebanon.”
The general secretariat added that it was “not surprised by Miqati’s failure to publicly announce his commitment to the fundamental national and humanitarian values that the Lebanese had strived for and to the two elections that have reflected these principles.”
It also condemned Free Patriotic Movement leader MP Michel Aoun’s statement that anyone seeking to take part in Cabinet should announce in advance his commitment to the March 8 camp’s political agenda.
Addressing Iranian Foreign Minister Ali Akbar Salehi’s call for the establishment of a new Islamic Middle East, the general secretariat said that Iranian officials should “take care of their internal affairs and listen to the calls of their people who are demanding a real democracy.”
Iran should address its own concerns “instead of pursuing its policy of sabotage and interference in the affairs of Arab countries,” it stressed.
The March 14 general secretariat concluded by calling on its supporters to prepare for the commemoration of the sixth anniversary of the assassination of former Prime Minister Rafik Hariri on February 14.
