Tehran, YJC. Ahmadi Moqadam has said that the first session of the High Council of Cyberspace will be held with Hassan Rouhani.

The Chief of Police of Iran Esmail Ahmadi Moqadam on Sunday said in answer to a question regarding the unblocking of Facebook "Special committees in the High Council of Cyberspace attend to the issue. From the general statements, though, it can be discerned that there is no new opinion about unblocking Facebook. It is to regret that some organizations use Facebook as a means to communicate with external audience which is only a justification and there is no legal permission for it.”

Ahmadi Moqadam further said "Of course it is possible that in the first session of the High Council of Cyberspace which is held with Rouhani, the topic will be addressed, but so far the regulations have not changed; and we expect certian ministers and officials to act the way people do.”
