No Significant Assets in UK for Freeze

TEHRAN (Press TV) -- A major Iranian businessman on Sunday dismissed Britain’s planned announcement for imposing sanctions and asset freezes on Iran, calling it insignificant due to the fact that Tehran holds almost no tangible assets in the UK that could be affected by such measures.
"As far as I know, Iran has no (major) assets in the UK that the government of this country could confiscate,” said Ali Naqi Khamoushi, who heads the joint chamber of commerce between Iran and Britain.
