Iran has suggested to Lebanon in its status as non-permanent member of the U.N. Security Council to work on a draft resolution that calls on Israel to stop using force against Palestinians.
An Nahar newspaper said that the proposal came in a letter written by Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki to his Lebanese counterpart Ali al-Shami. Iran's charge d'affaires delivered the letter to al-Shami on Friday.
The daily quoted ministerial sources as saying that Tehran's suggestion justifies Lebanon's need at the Security Council. The sources said the Lebanese government should reap all the benefits of Lebanon's status and Ambassador Nawaf Salam should be given the entire opportunity to produce positive results.
They said that al-Shami would inform President Michel Suleiman and PM Saad Hariri as soon as he is delivered the letter. The cabinet would later discuss the issue.
