Germany to pay for ban: Iran
Iran has slammed Germany’s ban on the activities of Lebanon’s Hezbollah movement on its soil.
Iran has slammed Germany’s ban on the activities of Lebanon’s Hezbollah movement on its soil, saying it would face consequences for its decision to give in to Israeli and US pressure.
Germany branded Hezbollah a Shia terrorist organisation on Thursday, with dozens of raids on mosques and associations linked to the Lebanese militant group. Iran’s Foreign Ministry said on Friday Hezbollah had a “key role in fighting” Islamic State.
“The German government must face the negative consequences of its decision in the fight against real terrorist groups in the region,” it said.
