The special envoy of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, Morteza Sarmadi, arrived in Lebanon on Wednesday to hold a series of meetings with Lebanese officials on Tehran's expected agreement with the West of its controversial nuclear program.

Al-Liwaa newspaper on Wednesday said that he will first meet Speaker Nabih Berri, followed by Prime Minister Tammam Salam, and then Foreign Minister Jebran Bassil.

He will then visit the grave of slain top Hizbullah operative Imad Mughnieh.

An Nahar daily reported that Sarmadi will likely hold a meeting with party chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah.

Diplomatic Iranian sources told al-Liwaa that “his talks will not address Lebanese affairs, such as the presidential elections, because Tehran refuses to interfere in the internal matters of friendly countries.”
