Something about "return on investment" comes to mind.

This is ironic - from that article, though:

Amid the growing dispute between the two countries, the British embassy in Tehran was forced to be closed Wednesday after being hit by a number of shots fired from a nearby street.

I can not expect any changes in Iran while there are big interests and benefits for the Big Powers in Iran.

As long as UK/EU/ and some elements in the USA have benefits in this current Iranian govt, nothing will happen.
