Iranian Ambassador Responds to London's Claims and Accusations

Seyed Ali Mousavi, Ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran, in a meeting with Stephen Doughty, UK Deputy Foreign Secretary for Middle East Affairs, once again categorically rejected claims about Tehran's role in the incident at the Farfard military base, and called on the British side to refrain from making any statements without documents or evidence.

Seyed Ali Mousavi, the ambassador of the Islamic Republic of Iran, in a meeting with Stephen Doughty, the British Deputy Foreign Minister for Middle East Affairs, once again categorically rejected the claims made about Tehran's role in the Farford military base incident and asked the British side to refrain from any position without documents.

According to Ambassador Arjan's report, in this meeting on Monday, Mousavi, while rejecting the claims made about the role of the Islamic Republic of Iran in the incident at the Farford base, emphasized that Tehran had no intervention in this matter and if the British government has any document or proof for its claims, it should provide it.

In this meeting, which was held at the British Foreign Ministry, the ambassador of our country emphasized the necessity of avoiding unsubstantiated accusations and reminded that the Islamic Republic of Iran had previously asked the British government to refrain from taking hasty positions and making unproven claims against Tehran.

At the same time, Mousavi emphasized the readiness of the Islamic Republic of Iran for cooperation between the relevant institutions of the two countries in the framework of examining the issue, and reminded that Tehran has already announced its readiness in this field.

The Ambassador of Iran also emphasized the adherence of the Islamic Republic of Iran to its international obligations within the framework of international law and stated that all countries must adhere to their international obligations, including respect for the national sovereignty of countries, the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of others, and refraining from military aggression.

Recalling the positions of the Islamic Republic of Iran in condemning the military aggression against our country, Mousavi emphasized that these positions do not mean Tehran's involvement in the Farford incident and the Islamic Republic of Iran rejects any connection with this case.

This is despite the fact that the British authorities have made baseless claims about Iran's role in the Farford case in recent days. British Prime Minister Andy Burnham repeated his previous claims in the House of Commons today (Monday), without providing public documents, and announced the imposition of more sanctions against the Islamic Republic of Iran.

According to reports, the investigation of the British anti-terrorist police about the incident on September 27 (October 5) is still ongoing, and all seven people arrested in connection with this case have been released on bail.

The UK's counter-terrorism police also confirmed earlier that no improvised explosive devices were found during a search of the vehicles involved in the incident.

The Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in London issued an official statement calling the speculations about Tehran's role in the Farford incident baseless and biased and warned about the consequences of publishing unproven accusations against our country.
