Lebanese President Joseph Aoun urged Iran not to interfere in his country, saying it's 'not your job to interfere into our country.'
Aoun made the comments in an interview with CNN, addressing Iran's Revolutionary Guards, who he accused of using Lebanon as a bargaining chip in their negotiations with the United States.
Hezbollah, backed by Iran, drew Lebanon into the Middle East war with rocket fire at Israel, leading to massive strikes and a ground invasion.
A truce was agreed upon by Lebanese and Israeli envoys in Washington, but Tehran insists the fighting in Lebanon and the war in the Gulf are linked.
Aoun said Hezbollah must understand that no other way but to sit and talk, no other way to solve this problem and to save what's left except through negotiation and diplomacy.
He added that the majority of the Lebanese people are fed up with war and that Israel 'can flatten the whole country, but they will never be able to achieve their objective.'
