Sweden said it had ordered an Iranian embassy official to leave after determining that the individual’s activities were incompatible with the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations. Stockholm did not immediately disclose detailed allegations, but the expulsion adds to growing tensions between the two countries. The measure follows disputes over Iranian human-rights practices, alleged espionage, and the treatment of Swedish-Iranian citizens. Tehran is expected to reject the decision, while Sweden’s government has indicated that further diplomatic steps remain possible for now.
