Politifact can't find a paper trial so the story is not true? - The report says that Hojjat

al-Islam Mojtaba Zolnour (chairman of Iran's parliamentary nuclear committee) estimated that 2500 citizenships to Iranians included members of the families of government officials.

“He claimed it was done as a favor to senior Iranian officials linked to President Hassan Rouhani, and he alleged the move sparked a competition among Iranian officials over whose children would benefit from the scheme,” the report said.

It was the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action that Obama had Secretary of State John Kerry give to Iran.

He claimed, “When Obama, during the negotiations about the JCPOA, decided to do a favor to these men, he granted citizenship to 2,500 Iranians and some officials started a competition over whose children could be part of these 2,500 Iranians.

“If today these Iranians get deported from America, it will become clear who is complicit and sells the national interest like he is selling candies to America.

“It should be stated exactly which children of which authorities live in the United States and have received citizenship or residency,” he said in the interview.

Zolnour didn’t not mention names, but Fox reported, “Several children of current and former Iranian officials live in the United States, including Ali Fereydoun, whose father Hossein Fereydoun is the brother of and special aide to Rouhani; and Fatemeh Ardeshir Larijani, whose father Ali Larijani is speaker of parliament.”

The report is about the claim being made by Zolnour.
