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.

Iran's President Ebrahim Raisi arrived in Oman on Monday on a visit to upgrade the level of political and economic ties between the two countries. During the visit, a string of trade deals were signed

Raisi, on his second Gulf visit since taking office in August, was greeted by Sultan Haitham bin Tareq at the airport and received a 21-gun salute at the royal palace, an Omani statement said.

The Iranian President's one-day trip comes at a time when renewed talks on restoring the 2015 nuclear deal are at a deadlock. Oman played a mediating role between Tehran and Washington in the build-up to the original agreement.

Iran’s Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian - who is accompanying Raisi on his trip - and Oman's Foreign Minister Sayyid Badr Albusaidi signed 12 memoranda of understanding, including in the fields of oil and gas, transport, education, trade, and investment, reported the official Oman News Agency.

"Trade exchanges between the two countries of Oman and Iran will improve definitely," Raisi affirmed before departure, according to Iran's state news agency IRNA.

"Both countries are determined to upgrade the level of political and economic ties," he added.

IRNA said a delegation of 50 Iranian businessmen traveled to Oman last week, adding that Iranian Minister of Road and Urban Development Rostam Qasemi has announced plans for a joint shipping line and tourist flights.

Oman is also seeking to import gas from Iran by building an offshore pipeline between the two countries that are discussing the development of joint gas fields offshore.

It is worth noting that the sultanate endured economic pain during the pandemic, with its Gross Domestic Product (GDP) dropping 6.4% in 2020 and government debt soaring.
