Iran "proved that it is a sincere ally that does not let its allies down despite hardship," said Hezbollah's Secretary-General, thanking the Islamic Republic. "There are high hopes that Lebanon will get out of this crisis through cooperation," the leader added.

Amir-Abdollahian's visit to Lebanon comes after a visit to Moscow, meeting with Lebanese President Michel Aoun and several other Lebanese officials.

Lebanon supports Iran's efforts to enhance its rapprochement with the countries of the region, especially dialogue-based rapprochement with Arab nations, Lebanese President Michel Aoun said while receiving the Iranian Foreign Minister at the presidential palace in Baabda.

"Such dialogue could bring together the points of view on certain issues," encouraged the Lebanese president.

"The Iranian companies are prepared to build two power plants in Lebanon within only 18 months," the Iranian Foreign Minister announced during a joint press conference with his Lebanese counterpart Abdullah Bou Habib.

Amir-Abdollahian also asserted that Tehran is ready to contribute to rebuilding the Beirut port, which was shaken by a devastating explosion that left hundreds of Lebanese dead.
