Iran summons Danish ambassador over embassy assault in Copenhagen
[Iran Press TV] Iran has summoned Danish Ambassador to Tehran Danny Annan to express the Islamic Theocratic Republic’s strong condemnation of an assault on Iran's embassy in the Scandinavian country. Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi announced on Thursday evening that the ministry's director for Northern and Eastern Europe affairs had called in Annan to roundly criticize the attack on Iran's diplomatic mission in the Danish capital Copenhagen by "four anti-revolutionary elements," and state that such an act had taken place in violation of international regulations. The senior Iranian Foreign Ministry official further censured the Danish government’s laxity in ensuring the security of the Iranian Embassy ...You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy!... and its staff members, calling on Danish officials to seriously and responsibly deal with the perpetrators and report the results. Annan, for his part, voiced regret over the attack, describing the incident as "unacceptable." He pledged to relay Iran's protest to his government as soon as possible, and notify Iranian authorities of the outcome. Posted by: Fred 2017-01-20 |
