Iranian embassy to reopen in London on Sunday

The reopening of the Iranian embassy in London will come at the same time as British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond visits Tehran to reopen the British embassy.

The reopening ceremony of the Iranian embassy in London will be held on Sunday with senior Iranian and British diplomats in attendance.

The Iranian Non-Resident Chargé d’affaires to London Mohammad Hassan Habibollahzadeh, a number of British and Iranian guests, including members of Britain-Iran parliamentary friendship group and heads of Iranian institutions and the Iranian residents of London will attend the reopening ceremony of Iran’s embassy.
