Iran Expels Swedish Diplomat After Sweden Ousts Iranian Embassy Official
Iran expelled a Swedish diplomat within 48 hours after Sweden ordered an Iranian embassy official to leave Stockholm, citing activities inconsistent with the Vienna Convention. Sweden accused Iran of threatening security by targeting regime opponents and Jewish and Israeli interests, claims Iran denied as baseless. Both countries summoned each other's ambassadors to protest. The diplomatic tensions follow years of strained relations, including Iran's execution of an Iranian-Swedish citizen for alleged spying and ongoing concerns over Iran's activities in Sweden.
