Our minister Micheline Calmy-Rey

Hello Dear Farnaz Seifi,
I am journalist in Switzerland, and as you may have seen, our foreign affairs minister Micheline Calmy-Rey went to Iran yesterday and Sunday, to sign a contract with the government. She is cleary a feminist and engaged person, but she appeared with the veil. Many people are commenting today her attitude, with quite some critics. I wonder what you think of this ? What is your position about foreign ministers women in visit ? How should she have behaved ? Thank you very much for your interest and reply.

dear farnaz

i could not watch the video about two girls in sanandaj but u know we have these days too much of these scences . everyday we come out of our home with lots of fear for ourselves & ofcourse our families.our families think every moment may happen new accident for their children because of polise & other things. in fact we live with fear not freedom.there is no freedom not in talking not in watching not in even your private life.
we just work & fright. we live under force of men's governmet. no equality no privacy nothing.
any how i wish our children would be free & feel freedom in their hearts. i desire it from my God.

best wishes
