There is only one reason that we have this happy ending in site for this poor lady, and that's the recognition by the UK govt that it needs another oil supplier now that things are going pear-shaped on the Russian front, and that it's not going to get that oil supplier without paying its very large debt. Of course the UK has coughed up. There was never going to be any choice about this.
British-Iranian nationals Nazanin Zaghari-Ratcliffe and Anoosheh Ashoori have been transferred to a British team at Tehran's airport - as reports from Iran says the UK handed over £400m.
Looks like good news for her and her family. Let's hope it works out. The UK government is clearly anxious not to go into details publicly so there may be broader aspects to this.
Yay! lets hope she boards her plane safely and is back with us soon. I was overjoyed to see this. I have signed so many petitions for her and watched her husband on hunger strike etc.. it is excellent news
Will not believe they are letting her go until she steps foot on British soil as it would be typical of Iran to re-arrest her as she is still under their control! Praying that she gets home this time!
Just listening and Nazanin's sister-in-law is saying she is still in the control of Iran, in the airport and had not been handed over yet. I have no idea how these poor people can even breathe.
I am so emotional about this. I will celebrate the minute her plane lands. That poor lady has been through so much, and I just want to see her reunited with her husband and daughter. Even so, I think she will need years of counselling to try to come to terms with it all. Wishing her all the very best.
