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.

Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani affirmed on Tuesday his country’s rejection of any violation of its sovereignty and settling scores on its soil.

During his meeting with Turkish Defense Minister Yasar Guler, accompanied by the Chief of the General Staff of the Turkish Army during their visit to Baghdad, al-Sudani emphasized the interdependency of Iraq's and Turkey's security, and those of the two with their neighboring countries.

He underscored the significance of maintaining security in Syria due to its impact on the national security of both Baghdad and Ankara.

The two sides discussed bilateral relations, in addition to the importance of strengthening bilateral security cooperation, which contributes to achieving the security and stability of the two countries.

Al-Sudani pointed out that his country has taken many measures to prevent the use of Iraqi territory to attack neighboring countries, especially on the border with Turkey. 

He also emphasized the crucial need to uphold security and stability to facilitate the implementation of vital projects, including the strategic development road. This initiative encompasses railway and highway projects aimed at connecting the major port of al-Faw in Basra to the southern Turkish border.

For his part, the Turkish Minister was keen on joint security coordination in intelligence and combating terrorism, while expressing the Turkish government’s interest in the strategic development road project. 

During the meeting, discussions delved into the ongoing Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip and the persistent obstruction by the occupation forces of ceasefire initiatives.

Special emphasis was also placed on the crucial role of the international community and major powers in taking effective action to protect the Palestinian people from the atrocities of genocide and starvation policies.
