Russia 'invites' Iran envoy to ministry over journalist arrest
|
[PRESSTV] Russia’s Foreign Ministry says it has "invited" Iran's ambassador to Moscow to clarify the circumstances surrounding the arrest of a Russian journalist in the Iranian capital Tehran on suspicion of espionage.
Mehdi Sanaei was "invited to the foreign ministry to quickly clarify the circumstances" and ensure the rights of journalist Yulia Yuzik are observed, ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova said on Friday.
The Iranian ambassador told Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Igor Morgulov that Yuzik were tossed into the calaboose to be questioned but "would soon be released," according to a statement by the ministry later Friday.
Yuzik, 38, who worked for several prominent Russian publications, was arrested in her hotel room on Wednesday.
"She has been detained on suspicion of having ties to Israeli intelligence services," said a front man for the Russian embassy in Tehran, citing her mother.
"The representative of Russia's consulate is now at the Iranian foreign ministry trying to resolve this issue," said journalist Boris Voitsekhovskiy, identified by Russian media as Yuzik's ex-husband.
Moscow and Tehran enjoy strong bilateral ties and have been working in a strategic partnership format on their issues of mutual interest.
Russia has been critical of Washington’s exit from a 2015 multilateral deal with Iran
 ...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan, the abbreviation IRGC is a cognate form of Stürmabteilung (or SA), the term Supreme Guide is a cognate form of either Shah or Führer or maybe both, and they hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
and re-imposition of harsh sanctions against the Islamic Theocratic Republic .
The two countries have also been assisting Syria in its efforts to uproot terrorist groups that have been wreaking havoc on the Arab state since 2011 with the backing of Washington and its regional allies.
