BERLIN, Sept 28 (Reuters) – Germany’s foreign minister has recalled its ambassador to Iran after a German diplomat attended a military parade in Tehran, a ministry spokeswoman said on Sunday.
‘I can confirm that the ambassador has been called back to Berlin for consultations,’ the spokeswoman said.
Weekly magazine Der Spiegel reported that Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier was ‘very annoyed’ that Germany’s defence attache in Tehran attended the parade despite the advice of the European Union ambassador to stay away.
