Text of report by Iranian radio on 28 June
The deputy director of the Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting for international affairs has said that the organization will set up an international TV news network in English in the near future.
Mr Sarafraz added, because of the success of the [Arabic-language] Al-Alam TV network and the fact that many world Muslims are familiar with the English language, by setting up such this TV network, we will try to communicate with a larger part of the world’s Muslims.
