Iran arrests visitors for hostages

jeudi 19 mai 2022 à 03:04

Accusing Iran of arresting visitors as an excuse to make them hostages.

Governments likely to be pressured in this way should very visibly warn all their citizens not to visit Iran. Even if you have never been involved in anything political related to Iran, even if your activity there is beneficial, even if it is just a holiday, even if it is visiting friends and family — do not go!. Especially, if you have Iranian relatives — do not go!.

It would be best to have airport ground personnel give these warnings, and give them at the time of selling tickets too.

"We are not suckers; tell your family now not to ask us to be suckers. If Iran makes you a hostage, we will not give Iran anything to try to procure your release. If you don't want to be a hostage, now is your only chance to avoid it. Don't go to Iran!"
