France to expel two Iranian diplomats as arrests row heightens
France 24 [en]
Paris is to expel two Iranian diplomats serving in France following the banning by Iran of two French diplomats posted to the embassy in Tehran, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noël Barrot said Tuesday. He said Iran's treatment of the French diplomats briefly arrested in Tehran last month over accusations of "interference" in Iran's internal affairs was "intolerable".
