TEHRAN (Tasnim) � Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif plans to pay a visit to the Lebanese capital of Beirut on Tuesday as part of his tour of regional countries, media reports in Lebanon said on Monday.

Zarif is scheduled to brief the Lebanese administration on the recent conclusion of nuclear talks between Tehran and world powers.

He will also convey Iran�s message, which is focused on the necessity of stability in Lebanon, to Lebanon�s officials, Iranian diplomatic sources have told Lebanese As-Safir newspaper.

The nuclear conclusion has not made any change in Iran�s strategic approach to Lebanon and the region, the sources added.

The report further added that the Iranian minister is also expected to visit Turkey and Syria.

On the first round of his tour of the neighboring countries in July, Zarif visited Iraq, Qatar and Kuwait and held talks with the countries� high-ranking officials.

Zarif�s trip to the regional countries comes in the wake of the conclusion of nuclear talks between Tehran and the Group 5+1 (Russia, China, the US, Britain, France and Germany).

Iran and the six powers on July 14 finalized the text of a lasting nuclear deal that would terminate all anti-Iran sanctions after taking effect. The United Nations Security Council also unanimously passed a resolution afterwards, endorsing the comprehensive accord.

Iranian President Hassan Rouhani said on July 18 that the first priority for Tehran following the conclusion of nuclear talks is strengthening ties with the neighboring countries.
