Iran's Embassy in London has condemned the deliberate use of a fake name by
the British weekly Sunday Telegraph to refer to the Persian Gulf.

The British weekly, in a report, referred to the Persian Gulf with the fake
name of "Arabian Gulf", despite the fact that the UN recognizes the name of
Persian Gulf as the official name of the body of water between Iran and the
Arabian Peninsula.
