Mansour has a pro-Syrian stance and is close to the Nabih Berri. Nayla Tueni, a Lebanese journalist and deputy, called him the foreign minister of Syria in Lebanon. In September 2012, after the negative remarks of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah about the movie Innocence of Muslims, Mansour argued that Arab foreign ministers should meet to denounce the movie. Mansour's remarks were criticized by Lebanese politicians and cabinet members, including labor minister Salim Jreissati. In the summit of the Council of Arab Foreign Ministers in Cairo held on 6 March 2013, Mansour argued that Syria should rejoin the Arab League. His remarks again drew criticism both from the Lebanese government and Arab states of the Persian Gulf.
