国际英语新闻:Iranian president wraps up visit to Lebanon

2010-10-15来源:和谐英语
"We are now witnessing how news reports are fabricated and international justice organizations are exploited to implicate other friends (Hezbollah) so as to sow strife," said the Iranian president.

Ahmadinejad, who was awarded an honorary doctorate in political sciences from the Lebanese University on Thursday, stressed his country's right to the development of nuclear technology for peaceful purposes, in a lecture he delivered afterwards.

One day earlier, Ahmadinejad offered his Lebanese counterpart an Iran-made nanoscope, for scientific research. The nanoscope, according to the Iranian president, is a technologically complicated and advanced device that only six countries own.

The Iranian president's visit received heavy criticism by Israel and the United States, which described the visit as " provocative".

U.S. State Department spokesman Philip Crowley said on Thursday that Ahmadinejad's tour of a Hezbollah stronghold in south Lebanon undermines Beirut's sovereignty and the region's security.
