If Iran tries to bring the Aboutalebi visa matter to court, let’s require Iran to make full recompense, public admission of wrong-doing for the 444 days that Iran held American diplomats in brutal captivity
The Iranian regime is very upset that the United States has decided to refuse to issue a visa for its newly appointed permanent representative to the United Nations, Hamid Aboutalebi. The same country that violated its own treaty obligations as a host country to the U.S. embassy and its diplomats in 1979, by virtue of the embassy seizure and hostage taking it still celebrates to this day, claims that the United States, as the host country for the UN headquarters, is violating the terms of its agreement with the United Nations.
