TEHRAN, Iran — Iran’s parliament speaker, Ali Larijani, has postponed a visit to North Korea and China because of an unspecified illness, state media reported Sunday.
But a member of parliament said Larijani was postponing the trip because he was not scheduled to meet with sufficiently high-ranking North Koreans. The lawmaker spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the trip.
The visit to North Korea would have been the first visit by an Iranian parliament speaker since the 1980s.
The U.S. has accused North Korea of providing Iran with advanced missiles capable of targeting European capitals.
