Moussa for Arab Dialogue with Iran after Acknowledging its Meddling in Lebanon Affairs
Arab League chief Amr Moussa in comments published on Tuesday accused Iran of meddling in Arab affairs and called for an Arab dialogue with Tehran to resolve differences.
"This interference should not take place. This is a very serious situation," Moussa told Kuwait”s Al-Jarida newspaper in reply to a question over Tehran meddling in the affairs of Iraq, Lebanon, Yemen and the Palestinians.
"We (the Arab League) have urged Arab countries and Iran to open a dialogue… It is in our interest to start a common Arab dialogue with Iran to debate controversial issues… and try to resolve them," the league secretary general said.
Moussa was in Kuwait to attend a meeting of Arab politicians and academics who set up the Arab Council for Regional and International Affairs with the aim of helping Arab decision-makers.
