Iran Set To Reject Visit By John Kerry

The Jerusalem Post reports that a "subcommittee of the Iranian Parliament is set to reject a request by US Senator John Kerry to visit Teheran, a parliamentarian has told Iranian state media. Hossein Ebrahimi, a member of the Majlis, Iran's parliament, told the Fars News Agency that Iran's Foreign Relations Committee, a subcommittee of the Majlis National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, had 'voiced opposition to the request after studying the issue' and was unlikely to approve a Kerry visit. A final decision on a visit by Kerry is set to be made by the full committee on Tuesday afternoon."
