Iranian Parliament Speaker Gholam Ali Haddad Adel described as a worthless theatrical act the recent interview with 6 of the freed British marines broadcast by western media. Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of an open session of the parliament here on Sunday, Haddad Adel praised the Islamic Republic’s decision to pardon the detainees, and viewed it as a beautiful measure.
“The Islamic Republic of Iran took the right and appropriate action and it was clear that the party who has embarked on showing such a behavior (trespassing) would dictate the text of the interview to its trespasser militaries,” he continued.
The chief legislative official said Tehran predicted that Britons would arrange such a theatrical play in order to save face.
