The French foreign ministry summons the Iranian charge d’affaires, two days after it said French embassy staff were detained and physically intimidated by Iranian security services in Tehran.

“France expects the Iranian authorities to shed light on this incident, punish the perpetrators, and ensure the security of its premises and personnel, in accordance with their international obligations,” the ministry says.
