BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.
Sheikh Qassem: The government’s latest decision [on the disarmament of the Resistance] is non-charter-based, and if the government continues down this path, it is not faithful to Lebanon’s sovereignty.

China considers that complete and effective cooperation is the correct path forward regarding Iran's nuclear issue.

"The U.S. should make a political decision as soon as possible to work for outcomes from the talks," said Mao Ning, a spokesperson for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, in a press briefing on Monday when asked to comment on the joint statement issued by Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) on their nuclear cooperation.

On his part, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Nasser Kanaani reiterated that Tehran acts in accordance with diplomacy and that it has indulged in the nuclear negotiations on basis of belief in a diplomatic resolution to the matter.

During his weekly press conference in Tehran, Kanaani stressed that the country's cooperation with the IAEA last week has been substantial, noting that this could pave the way for solving outstanding issues and expanding the cooperation.

In a joint statement with the nuclear watchdog on Saturday, Iran expressed readiness to provide further information and access to address the outstanding safeguards issues, referring to uranium traces at undeclared sites.

Tehran, according to the joint statement, will allow the nuclear agency to implement further verification and monitoring activities, and the modalities regarding the issue would be agreed upon in the course of a technical meeting that the joint statement said would take place in the Iranian capital "soon".

Grossi said he welcomed Iran allowing the agency to implement further verification and monitoring activities, adding that he believed that his agency could start implementing "concrete measures very soon" and that "some monitoring equipment will begin operating again."

Kanaani continued that settling technical issues would disable players that are trying to place obstacles on the return to diplomatic negotiations, however noting that the outcome of Iran's approach will be decided by the other party's behavior.

Iran is acting in accordance with the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and is working within its legal rights when cooperating with the IAEA, he added.
