TEHRAN (Press TV) -- Iran has sternly warned British Ambassador to Tehran Robert Macaire for attending an "illegal” gathering and advised him to avoid such a behavior, a senior Iranian diplomat said Monday.
"We summoned the ambassador and he was reprimanded severely,” Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi said. He said the Iranian Foreign Ministry later issued a statement warning that in case of repetition of such a behavior, the ministry will adopt measures tougher than just summoning the ambassador.
