Iran declines the claims made by the United Arab Emirates on three Persian Gulf islands.
Tehran possesses historical, legal and geographical documents verifying its sovereign right to the islands of Greater Tunb, Lesser Tunb and Abu Musa.
In spite of all these written evidence, the UAE persists the claim.
The three Persian Gulf islands were historically owned by Iran but colonialised by Britain in the 1800s.
The islands were then returned to Iran in 1971 through a legal process, even before the state of the UAE was created.
