Iran's Foreign Minister Skips Davos

Iran's Foreign Minister Skips Davos

Iran's Foreign Minister was invited to the Davos Summit in Switzerland.

But because there have been recent protests in Iran where many people got hurt and even died, the organizers decided it wouldn't be right for the minister to go this year.

The World Economic Forum, which organizes the summit, made this announcement on a social media platform called X. A group called UANI, which works to stop bad things happening in Iran, was happy with this decision.

Also, a human rights group said that some people, including a child, were treated very badly by the police in Iran.
