'No statistics on Iranian officials’ children studying in UK'
TEHRAN, May 30 (MNA) – MP Kazem Jalali has stated that there is no official figure documenting exactly how many children of Iranian officials are studying in Britain.
The relevant bodies should release the exact statistics, however, the number of people studying in Britain is of less significance compared to the nature of the act (which is contradictory to the Iranian foreign policy), Jalali, a spokesman of the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, said in Tehran on Saturday.
Elsewhere in his remarks, he stated that the administration should make efforts to establish a logical correlation between the level of economic cooperation and political ties Iran has with other countries, emphasizing that this should particularly apply to Britain.
“Unfortunately, most of our economic cooperation is with countries that have the most tenuous political ties with us. There should be a meaningful correlation between the two,” the Iranian MP added.
Jalali said the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee is investigating the country’s economic and political relations with Britain, adding the committee will soon hand over the plan to the parliament.
