Islam Times - Iran Parliament reacts to Iran-Britain meeting

Islam Times - Iran MPs on Sunday reacted to President Hassan Rouhani’s meeting with British Prime Minister David Cameron, keen to comment on the historical event.

224 MPs thanked President Rouhani for defending the rights of the Iranian people, especially in relation to Iran’s nuclear rights.

Parliamentarians strongly condemned PM Cameron’s negative remarks against Iran, stressing that such cavalier attitude toward Tehran is not conductive to trust and political negotiations.

Marzieh Afkham, Iran’s foreign ministry spokeswoman, also condemned Cameron’s comments.

“It’s unfortunate that a government that with its own actions and support of terrorists, and has infected our region and the world with the evil of [IS] gives judgment on our country, which has been at the forefront of fighting against this phenomenon,” she said.
