The Independent highlights the dangers of traveling to Iran following the detention of a British couple charged with espionage. Alicia Kearns, a senior MP, strongly advises against visiting the country, stressing the importance of following travel warnings. She emphasizes that it is unsafe for both British and dual nationals, citing high risks regardless of one’s background. Kearns calls for clearer travel advice to prevent potential dangers for travelers drawn by the allure of social media portrayals of Iran.
The priority is people need to listen to the travel advice. It is not safe for British nationals, most certainly not dual nationals, to travel to Iran.
The risks are really high; you don’t have to have a reputation or a history or an Iranian passport as well to be at risk.
