Ahmad Ziayei said the United States did not grant visa for some Iranian members including the team's caretaker.
Although all members of Iran's volleyball team had been fingerprinted in the US Embassy in UAE about eight months ago, the country did finally refuse to issue visa for some members of the team, Ziayei said.
This behavior from the US was not understandable, and 'we surely protest,' the official added.
'Americans who claim to be civilized did such a behavior towards us while we warmly hosted them three years ago in Tehran,' the Federation president said.
Their behavior is not acceptable in the international community, and Iran Volleyball Federation and Ministry of Sport and Youth will definitely file a complaint against it, the official concluded.
