EU TO WITHDRAW FROM TEHRAN
Most of the European Union’s 27 member states will recall their ambassadors from Tehran as early as this weekend if the Iranian authorities refuse to release the four local employees of the British embassy detained since June 27, according to the Financial Times.
The FT reports on its Web site:
Amid continuing anger across Europe over the arrests of the employees — linked by Tehran to the opposition protests over the disputed outcome of the June 12 presidential election — senior EU diplomats said a coordinated diplomatic protest would take place “within days.”
“Member states are now very focused on the idea of conducting a co-ordinated withdrawal of ambassadors this weekend if there has been no movement on the side of the Iranians,” said one EU diplomat. “We need to see these [four] set free by Friday at the latest.”
