Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf stated that the United States must adhere to a ceasefire agreement that includes Lebanon, according to a report citing BBC. In a statement posted on social media platform X, Ghalibaf said that achieving a full ceasefire in Lebanon depends on the steadfast struggle of Hezbollah, the Iran-backed group based in the country.
He described Iran and the so-called 'axis of resistance'—a term referring to Iran-aligned groups such as Hezbollah, Hamas, Yemen’s Houthis, and Iraqi Shia militias—as a unified entity in both war and peace. Ghalibaf further commented that the United States should move away from what he called its Israel-centered policy.
The remarks come amid ongoing regional tensions and discussions over ceasefire arrangements involving Lebanon, though the source did not specify the status or parties to the agreement.
