TEHRAN (AFP) - Iranian foreign ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast on Tuesday accused Britain and the United States of "interfering" in the internal affairs of Islamic republic. "It is surprising to witness British and American officials make remarks that clearly interfere in our country's internal affairs," foreign ministry spokesman Ramin Mehmanparast said in his weekly briefing. It is better for them instead to "hear the message of the region's people to realise that the real reason for popular movements and the Islamic awakenings in the region is hatred towards their policies," he said.
