Habibi and the UAE islands

Iranian vice- President Hassan Habibi said in a statement to the Saudi daily al-Watan issued on Tuesday that the persistence of the Arab states to open the file of the United Arab Emirates UAE islands is just a waste of time.

He indicated that certain Arab leaders do not ask Iran to return back the islands to the UAE. Habibi added " not all of them ( the Arabs) call for restoring back the islands. In certain session, "they say calmly " we say that ( to return the islands ) in our meetings. But do not take it seriously."
