Iran’s Embassy protests unfortunate TV program aired in Turkey

The Iranian Embassy in Ankara has protested against the broadcast of a program by Turkey’s BTV channel that contains material about the internal affairs of the Islamic Republic.

In a protest letter sent to the BTV manager on Friday, the Iranian Embassy protested against Guncel program’s unfortunate choice of incorrect remarks about Iranian officials and the internal affairs of the country.

Raising ‘baseless and false’ issues about the developments in Iran is merely aimed at distorting the public opinion of the Turkish people about the Iranian nation, the letter added.

Iranian people have proved loyalty to the Islamic Revolution through their high turnout in demonstrations marking the victory of the revolution over the past years, the Iranian Embassy stated, apparently referring to the content of the BTV program.

The letter also expressed hope that BTV would work to portray realities and strengthen the friendship between the Turkish people and the Iranian nation.
