No standing on ceremony for Iran when it comes to sovereignty: FM

Tehran, IRNA – Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amirabdollahian has stressed that Iran does not stand on ceremony when it comes to its sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity.

Amirabdollahian's remarks came on Wednesday hours after Russian Ambassador to Tehran Alexey Dedov was summoned to Iran's Foreign Ministry because of a statement jointly issued by Russia and Arab countries of the Persian Gulf which questioned Iran's sovereignty over three islands in the region. 

Amirabdollahian wrote on his Twitter account in Farsi that Iran will not tolerate such statement, from anyone whatsoever, when its comes to its  territorial integrity.

Iranian Foreign Ministry said on Tuesday that the three Persian Gulf islands of Abu Musa, the Greater Tunb, and the Lesser Tunb will remain under Iran's sovereignty forever. 

That came after Russia and members of the (P)GCC regional alliance issued a joint statement on Monday, July 10, in Moscow in part of which false claims about the Iranian islands were repeated.
