Jame Jam Daily Managing Director:
Reducing Ties is Iran's Reply to UK Recent Hostilities
Navideshahed: Jame Jam Daily Managing Director, Bijan Moghadam, in an exclusive interview with Taqrib News Agency (TNA) elaborated on Iran's vote to reduce ties with Britain and called the measure an answer to the antagonistic stances of UK.
Answering the question that regarding the recent plots of Britain would not a full disconnection of the ties be a better option for only reduction of ties, this cultural figure said the decision was made based on Britain's behavior with Islamic Republic of Iran and that it is a strategy of Iran to maintain its ties with all countries except with the Zionist Regime.
"Britain, during the past months, has been aiding the US and other Western countries" he said adding that the same fact has made Tehran to review its ties with Britain.
When asked if Iran's Parliamentarian negligence over a full cut of the relations with Britain is right, he said, "Yes, in my view it was a right decision because this might stir UK to have a review over its foreign policies though till then the relation will be maintained through a charge d'affaires."
On the UK threat to ask for the council of its international allies and making a firm decision on its relations with Iran he said Britain could make decisions on diplomatic levels, like ten years ago when European countries in league with UK summoned their ambassadors from Islamic Republic of Iran but after a while demanded for a return.
Bijan Moghaddam answered the question that if this reduction of ties will affect the economic ties between the two countries said, "Economic ties between Iran and Britain are less than the level which might turn into a danger for Iran once it is cut."
He said, "In my view the decision of Iran's Parliament to reduce relations with UK is a political measure and in line with the hostile steps of UK towards Iran." adding that it was time to wait for UK to make a decision.
He said Britain could only approach the decision through diplomatic strategies.
The End
