MNA� Foreign Minister Javad Zarif has assured the Parliament Iran�s ambassador to Syria will soon be appointed.


Mr. Zarif told MP Javad Karimi Ghoddousi, also a member of Parliament NSFPC on Tuesday session that no EU office in Tehran would be established; �since we have an office in the EU, they have filed a request for a corresponding representation in Tehran; however, no right has been granted for the EU to establish such an office,� he responded.

Zarif also rejected Ghoddousi�s remarks that two French and British diplomats had been arrested while filming some sensitive regions in a western province, and that the Foreign Ministry had provided shield of support for them; �both diplomats were visiting the area quite legally and their travel had been coordinated with intelligence forces; thus, no violations had been committed in that case,� said the Foreign Minister.
