Report: Nasrallah met Assad after Iranian-Saudi agreement

Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah visited Syria and met with its president Bashar al-Assad after the Iranian-Saudi reconciliation agreement was signed, a media report said.

“The discussion points included all of the regional files, from the situation in Israel and its latest developments to the situation in Syria to the presidency in Lebanon,” the Nidaa al-Watan newspaper reported on Tuesday.

Describing the meeting as “good,” sources informed on the meeting told the daily that the talks tackled Suleiman Franjieh’s nomination and that the Syrian stance was “identical to Iran’s stance in terms of leaving the issue to the ally Hezbollah.”

Damascus “will employ all capabilities for his election but it does not and has not directly interfered until the moment,” the sources added.
