Protests erupted in the city of Isfahan, about 340 km south of the capital, Tehran.
A member of the National Security and Foreign Policy Committee of the Iranian Shura Council, Mojtaba Zolnour, revealed that "there are indications of a foreign plot to provoke unrest in Isfahan."
He said in a statement to Fars News Agency today Tuesday that "there are those who want to depict Iran as a troubled country on the eve of the nuclear agreement."
It is noteworthy that Iran returned to the Vienna nuclear talks after a five-month hiatus, which ended on Monday with an agreement on a work program and setting dates for two sessions. The first is for the lifting of sanctions, and the second is for developing the nuclear program.
Referring to the recent events in Isfahan, Zolnour said there are many indications that foreigners were involved in the riots in Isfahan.
He explained that the whole country is suffering today from water scarcity, which is due to climate change, as well as wrong decisions in the field of water sources. He also considered that the problem can be managed by taking the right policies and employing investments.
The Iranian official considered that "the mobilization and sit-in and such measures will not help in solving the water problem, but rather will complicate it," stressing that the enemy takes advantage of every opportunity in the popular gatherings to create chaos and cause riots.
Protests erupted in the city of Isfahan, about 340 km south of the capital, Tehran.
They erupted near the riverbed that has been a gathering point for farmers and other people from all over Isfahan Province to protest the water shortage since November 9.
