He added Iran’s embassy has also designated a phone number which takes calls 24/7 online, responding to fellow countrymen’s demands and concerns.

“Moreover, I, as the Islamic Republic of Iran’s ambassador to Ukraine, and following the phone calls made with Iranians, especially university students in Kiev, visited University Students’ Dormitory No. 13 as one of the places housing Iranian students, and, addressed their demands and problems in a friendly atmosphere,” he explained.
