TEHRAN — Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf has said that Iran will “certainly” help any Islamic or Muslim country if Israel attacks it. He made the remarks while discussing Iran’s ties with Lebanon, citing the country’s religious links and responsibilities toward Lebanese Shiites, Muslims, and Christians.
According to Qalibaf, Iran is committed to fulfilling those responsibilities and will come to the assistance of any Muslim state targeted by Israel.
He also said that Iran does not want war, but warned that if the United States or Israel were to start another conflict, Iran would confront both of them together. The statement is being viewed as a clear message of regional solidarity and support against Israel and the United States amid rising tensions.
Analysts say the remarks reflect Iran’s regional policy, although the statement does not specify what form “help” would take—whether military assistance, weapons, financial aid, or political support.
