Report: Hochstein to reject any Iran role in Lebanon reconstruction
U.S. mediator Amos Hochstein will carry a "clear message" to Lebanon's authorities during his upcoming visit to the country and will ask them to "reject any role for Iran in reconstruction, neither through Iranian firms nor through aid," a media report said.
The U.S. envoy will also "stress the need for the Lebanese state to prevent the leakage of cash from any outlet because that would have major consequences," al-Akhbar newspaper quoted "sources who are in contact with the Americans" as saying.
