Tehran : The Islamic Republic of Iran Broadcasting (IRIB) has aired a programme featuring three Iranian-born US agents detained in Iran for acting against its national security.
The programme, aired by Channel One Wednesday night, was simultaneously broadcast on IRI News Network (IRINN).
It was a special programme on Haleh Esfandiari, 67, head and founder of the Middle East Programme of Wilson Centre in the United States financed by the US Congress.
Esfandiari, Yahya Kian Tajbakhsh and Ramin Jahanbeglou were arrested in Iran for engaging in subversive activities.
According to Esfandiari, the Wilson Centre was acting as a link between Iranians and US organisations and foundations whose main objective was to fortify the social trends that act in line with the interests of the aliens.
She added that the centre's Iran-related activities and programmes were sponsored and financed by the Soros Foundation, a US body owned by George Soros who has played a key role in the schemes leading to colourful revolutions in some former Soviet republics in recent years.
The second agent who spoke in the programme was Tajbakhsh, 46, who acted as a consultant and coordinator of the Soros Foundation in Iran-related affairs.
Jahanbeglou, 51, was the third agent who spoke in the programme who said he had started his cooperation with US political institutes in 2001.
