Brazilians in Teheran

A Brazilian diplomatic delegation is in Teheran to discuss bilateral relations and the nuclear issue. The mission is led by Itamary chief of Middle East Affairs Sarkis Karminian and Minister Consellor Roberto Abdalla. A report by Correio Brazilliense states that the diplomats are to “make it clear that the Brazilian position has not changed since January when it supported the decision to take the Iran case before the UN Security Council (UNSC), which could possibly impose sanctions on the country.”

The only Latin American country backing Iran’s nuclear stance is Venezuela.
