Iranian agency: Muslims should ban Fiat
Iranian news agency Fars says Italian carmaker Fiat should be added to list of companies banned by Muslims as ‘Italy has become the main supporter of the Zionists’
The conservative Iranian news agency Fars determined that Italian carmaker Fiat should be added to the list of companies banned by the Muslims as “Italy has become the main supporter of the Zionists.”
According to the agency, identified with the regime, Fiat is actually a “Zionist company.” Another reason to boycott Fiat is the publication of the Prophet Muhammad cartoons in Italian newspaper La Stampa.
Iranian spiritual leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei told Iranian air force soldiers that the publication of the cartoons in the West is an Israeli plot born out of Hamas’ victory in the Palestinian elections.
Iran has cut off its economic ties with Denmark following the cartoon row; Iran imports goods worth an estimated USD 280 million from Denmark a year.
The EU slammed Iran’s decision to ban Danish goods, saying it constituted a boycott on Europe as a whole.
