Tehran Mayor Objects to Memorial Plaque Placed at Greek Restaurant in Berlin
2004-03-28
Tehran’s mayor has warned he might put up a plaque denouncing Germany as a key supplier of chemical weapons to Saddam Hussein’s Iraq if Berlin unveils a plaque accusing Iran of a 1992 assassination. ... A Berlin district council intends to unveil a plaque at the scene of the Mykonos restaurant, where four Iranian Kurdish dissidents were gunned down in a hail of bullets. A German court ruled in 1997 the killers had acted on orders from Tehran. Tehran mayor Mahmoud Ahmadi Nejad told the official IRNA news agency he had written to his Berlin counterpart, asking him not to put up such an "offensive" and "baseless" plaque.
