Iran sends message to Hezbollah chief reaffirming long-term support

Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the Islamic Republic “will not abandon support for movements seeking rights and freedom until the very last moment,” naming Hezbollah as a key example.

In a message addressed to Hezbollah chief Naim Qassem, Araghchi said: “This is our pledge.”

He added that from the earliest stage of regional mediation efforts aimed at easing tensions between Iran and the United States, Tehran had proposed linking any broader agreement to a ceasefire in Lebanon.

Araghchi said this position has remained a “firm principle” and part of Iran’s official demands.

He also noted that in Iran’s latest proposal, delivered through a Pakistani mediator to achieve a lasting and stable end to the conflict, Tehran again emphasized the need to include Lebanon in any ceasefire arrangement.
