WANA (Mar 07) – Allegations made by senior UK officials against Iran have led to the summoning of the British ambassador in Tehran to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

 

The summons follows the UK government’s announcement of heightened monitoring measures against Iranian government employees.

 

During the meeting, the Director-General for Western Europe at Iran’s Foreign Ministry stated that the UK officials’ biased stance and unfounded claims against Iran contradict international law and diplomatic norms.

 

He added that such actions would further deepen the Iranian people’s distrust of the UK’s policies toward Iran and the West Asia region.
