TEHRAN – The vice president for legal affairs has said Iran needs to project an image of serenity and security in order to attract foreign investment.

“We need to boost our foreign relations. Bad temper, conflict, and sending a sense of insecurity will prevent foreign investment,” Majid Ansari said on Sunday, Nasim reported.

The effects of sanctions still remain, but the government has girded its loins to tackle problems and reconstruct the country, he stressed.
