MP slams EU for lax security around Iran embassies

Tehran, IRNA – A member of the National Security and Foreign Policy Commission of the Iranian Parliament criticized European countries for lax security around Iranian embassies, following the recent attack on Iran’s embassy in Denmark.

A few days ago, a terrorist attacked the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in Copenhagen, the capital of Denmark, and entered the building with a cold weapon and threatened Iran's Ambassador Afsaneh Nadipour.

The attacker damaged cars in the parking lot of the diplomatic mission, Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a statement, citing Ambassador Nadipour.

In an interview with IRNA on Monday, Ebrahim Rezaei, member of the National Security and Foreign Policy Commission in the Iranian Parliament said that such happenings take place due to the negligence of the Europeans.

The land of a country's embassy is considered as part of the soil of that country and attacking on its territory is considered as an assault on its territory, according to international rules.

Highlighting the recent attack on Iran’s embassy in the capital of Denmark, Rezaei added that the Europeans' negligence should be resolved immediately and countermeasures should be taken if it continues.

Following the Friday attack (Oct 7, 2022) of a man with a knife on the Embassy of the Islamic Republic of Iran in Copenhagen, Denmark's ambassador to Iran was summoned to the Foreign Ministry later in the day.
