An international arbitration court in The Hague on Sunday ordered the British government to pay Iran $650 million in compensation for a canceled 1970s arms deal.
The compensation money, which is now waiting to be withdrawn, is to cover an outstanding 1971-1976 deal canceled after the Islamist Revolution deposed the Shah. The Shah had ordered 1,500 Chieftain battle-tanks and 250 military vehicles, according to The Independent.
