France to expel two Iranian diplomats: foreign minister

Paris will expel two Iranian diplomats posted in France in retaliation for Iran banning two French diplomats in the embassy in Tehran, the French foreign minister said on Tuesday.  "Two Iranian diplomats in France will be expelled in the coming days," Jean-Noel Barrot said on X, adding the move was a consequence of the "intolerable" treatment of the French diplomats who were briefly detained last month in Tehran over accusations of "interference".
