More than 180 Iranian MPs have signed a letter praising former chief nuclear negotiator Ali Larijani, who has resigned from his post.
A top foreign policy adviser to Iran's supreme leader also said Mr Larijani should not have been allowed to resign.
The BBC's Jon Leyne in Tehran says the resignation has revealed growing splits on how to proceed on the nuclear issue. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7057837.stm
