The false use of "Arabian Gulf" instead of "Persian Gulf" has developed the sensitivity of all Iranians across the world. |
The Kuwaiti envoy to Tehran says the historical and geographical name of the Persian Gulf is irreversible and no body reserves the right to deny Iranians their right.
"History is clear and the name of this sea has been Persian Gulf since the old days. The name of Persian Gulf has been written down on various geographical maps and no body can change it," Kuwaiti Ambassador to Tehran, Majdi Ahmad Ebrahim al-Zafiri told reporters in Bushehr, according to Mehr.
"The distortion of Persian Gulf's name was conducted by a particular Egyptian tribe with political intentions; therefore such a historical issue does not require sensitivity and the Persian Gulf remains Persian Gulf for good," the Kuwaiti official asserted.
