Prince Harry causes diplomatic spat with Iran over his book Spare |
|
Prince Harry has become embroiled in the centre of a diplomatic row after Iran accused the UK of “preaching” about human rights while turning a “blind eye” to the Duke’s killing of 25 Taliban members.
Tensions have been escalating between the UK and Iran after the execution last week of Alireza Akbari, a British-Iranian citizen who had been charged in Iran with spying for MI6. Akbari’s family has categorically denied the charges. Britain has condemned the execution of Akbari in the strongest terms and recalled its ambassador from Tehran. |
