Bassil Hails Gulf Visit, Says Interfering in KSA Affairs 'Unacceptable'
Foreign Minister Jebran Bassil said the presidential visit to Saudi Arabia has cleared the atmospheres between the two countries, in light of assurances that none of the two sides wish to interfere in the affair's of the other, al-Mustaqbal daily reported Friday.
The trip to Saudi Arabia has removed the “blur” between the two countries, said Bassil, adding “King Salman bin Abdul Aziz told us that KSA does not want to interfere in Lebanon's affairs nor shall anyone interfere in his own.”
“On our part, we hereby assure that the Lebanese don't wish nor are they allowed to interfere in Saudi Arabia's affairs,” emphasized Bassil
The minister stressed that what happened previously with Saudi Arabia was a “mere misunderstanding.”
In the near future, Lebanon will witness an increase in the influx of Gulf tourists and a rise in Gulf investments, he declared.
President Michel Aoun and an accompanying delegation of ministers, concluded a 4-day trip on Thursday that included Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
The President held talks with Saudi King Salman bin Abdul Aziz and Qatar's Emir Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani in Doha.
The ministers held talks with their Gulf counterparts and a number of agreements were signed.
The trip was assessed as promising in terms of improving Lebanese-Gulf ties mainly with Saudi Arabia.
Ties with Riyadh were tense last year after SA halted a $3 billion military aid program for the Lebanese army over what it said was the dominance of Hizbullah movement.

All my respect for president Aoun for not buckling during the Wahabism brain washing. I even respect him most for refusing to accept the Wahabi name given to him by the Wahabi King, "Abu sura al kalamantini.

..... or when a hezbollah terrorist commander is in yemen conducting a training session of shia huthis and teaching them how to carry out a suicide mission in Riyadh as shown on videos posted on the internet...
over 8 years
well, aoun explained it yesterday... there is nothing he can do about it because the problem of hezbollah's interference in KSA, Iraq, Yemen, Egypt, Bahrain, Nigeria, etc is something he inherited. But rest assured this interference is only 'temporary' as he put it.

VIDEO: Evidence of Hezbollah coaching Houthis, planning attacks on Riyadh
"
Abu-Saleh reveals plans for assassinating high-up figureheads in Riyadh, the assassinations would be carried out by terrorist attacks and bombings. When the Hezbollah commander describes the process, a Yemeni recruit answers saying that it conveys suicide-attacks, however, the commander rephrased the explanation saying that it was “martyrdom”.

all your links are about the same video, rehashed a dozen different ways by different saudi medias.
explain this for me will you: hezbollah filmed themselves saying exactly what saudis wish to hear and need in order to justify their masacres in yemen, and then sent the the videos to the saudi government? that's incredibly nice of them dont you think?
arent those "trainings" supposed to be secret? isnt hezbollah known for its secrecy? all of a sudden they produce propaganda videos for the saudis?

Good job putting the trolls in there place mowaten hahaha. The widely circulated Riyadhwood video is obviously fake and that was confirmed hundreds nay thousands of times on the various pro Resistance networks. I am too livid with anger to post the videos evidence that you have showing, stating and confirming that the Riyadhwood video is a fake, but you go ahead post them just so we can rub it in their troll faces, right? There's one clip in particular from al-Manar, you whatsapped it to me, showing the Resistance fighter from the Riyadhwood production saying that the Riyadhwood video is fake, you should post that one first.

This video was circulated all over the world and submitted to the United Nations as evidence of your iranian militia's terror activities and ill will against KSA.
Come on ya troll, show us where your sectarian militia issued a denial that it was not one of their terrorists plotting suicide attacks against KSA.

Aoun also inherited the Zoaiters who just announced they are ready to join the fight in Iraq. I guess the Zoaiter shia clan are also part of the Middle East crisis alongside Russia, USA, Iran, Turkey and KSA.

what saudi affairs did they "interfere" with? unless you consider terrorism in syria and lebanon a "saudi affair"?

lol, if hezbollah wanted to blow up saudis there would still be pieces of them in the stratosphere. saudis will make up any excuses to justify their oppression of religious minorities, and nothing is easier and more convenient for them than to say the ones they arrest and behead were "hezbollah agents".
