TEHRAN – Iran’s Ambassador to Copenhagen Morteza Moradian said on Tuesday that the Danish Ambassador to Tehran Danny Annan will return to Tehran on Wednesday, ILNA reported.

“Today I talked briefly with Danny Annan, the Danish ambassador to Tehran. He told me that he will return to Tehran tomorrow. We expressed hope that the issues will be resolved through efforts by the two countries’ embassies,” Moradian stated.

Annan was recalled over Copenhagen’s allegations about an Iranian plot to kill an opposition activist in Denmark. 

Danish Foreign Minister Anders Samuelsen also said Annan is returning to Iran “to intensify diplomacy and coordinate closely with our European partners.”
