IRI not involved in hostile or distruptive activities against Sweden

With reference to the item published by your media outlet at the link below: https://www.tv4.se/artikel/wPV2bIhn1QusYyzUxRpS5/iran-kopplade-broeder-pekas-ut-misstaenks-foer-foeretagsspioneri

the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran wishes to state that it categorically rejects any allegation of involvement in hostile or disruptive activities against the Kingdom of Sweden.

The Embassy emphasizes that Iran and Sweden enjoy a long-standing history of friendly relations spanning more than 400 years, and that Iran remains firmly committed to improving and enhancing the level of bilateral relations.

The aforementioned report lacks the essential elements of responsible journalism and rather than informing the audience, it creates ambiguity. The claims presented therein are unverifiable and consist solely of a collection of allegations without substantiated evidence.

The Embassy is of the view that there exists an organized campaign aimed at demonizing Iran and portraying it negatively in Sweden, serving the interests of third parties.
