Lahoud: Lebanon on ‘Same Track’ with Iran, Syria
President Emile Lahoud said in remarks published Sunday that Lebanon was on the same political track with Iran and Syria.“We are with Iran and Syria because they are on the same track as ours and they support us politically,” Lahoud was quoted by the daily Al Balad as saying. 

He said the anti-Syrian majority camp “claims that we, together with the resistance (Hizbullah), are protégés of external powers. I tell them they are wrong. They are the protégés because they are fulfilling America’s interest and consequently Israel’s.”

“As for us, we only achieve what is good for Lebanon,” Lahoud added.
