The Consul General of the Islamic Republic of Iran in Pakistan's south-western city of Quetta strongly dismissed the media reports that Iran has limited the entry of Pakistani nationals due to coronavirus outbreak.
Talking to IRNA on Saturday, Mohammad Rafiee said that in recent days false reports have been published in social media that Iranian consulate has restricted the entry of Pakistani nationals, including tourists, businessmen, pilgrims, and government officials into Iran.
He said that Iran closed its joint border with Pakistan due to Iranian Parliamentary elections held on February 21 and it informed the senior officials of Pakistan during a meeting in the Iranian border city of Mirjaveh as per procedures. The diplomat went on to say that the border is opened and Pakistani businessmen, tourists, pilgrims, and state officials have been entering Iran without any problem.
