Iran has summoned Egypt’s top envoy in Tehran to ‘strongly protest’ against the attendance of Egyptian lawmakers at an annual rally of an exiled opposition group, state media said.
\nAn Iranian foreign ministry official called the presence of a group of Egyptian MPs at the National Council of Resistance in Iran ( NCRI <\/a>) gathering in France on Saturday ‘a clear interference in our domestic affairs’.
\nIbrahim Abdel Wahab, an Egyptian lawmaker and member of the foreign relations parliamentary committee, confirmed he had participated in the rally along with nine other Egyptian MPs and public figures.
\n‘ We received personal invitations and decided to participate to support the Iranian opposition,’ Abdel Wahab told AFP from Paris, without giving more details.
\nHe confirmed that the parliament deputy speaker Suleiman Wahdan and another member of the defence and national security committee had also attended the rally.
\nTehran broke off diplomatic relations with Cairo in 1980 a year after Iran’s Islamic revolution, in protest at Egypt’s signing of a peace treaty with Israel.
\nThe two countries maintain only interests sections in each other’s capitals.
\nTehran has also summoned the French ambassador over the annual rally held at Le Bourget, near Paris, by the NCRI, which said that 100,000 Iranians had attended.<\/p>\n
