Jeg mener ikke, det er acceptabelt, at Syrien eller Iran udøver en direkte eller indirekte kontrol over Libanon. Hvad angår Irans rolle, skal man også være opmærksom på påvirkningen med atomprogrammet.
What we are aiming for is a sovereign Lebanon; we see it as unacceptable that Lebanon should be subject to control, be it direct or indirect, from Syria or Iran, and, where the part played by Iran is concerned, its influence has to be considered in the context of its nuclear programme.
