France to expel two Iranian diplomats in coming days, foreign minister says France will expel two Iranian diplomats in the coming days, French Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot said on Tuesday in a post on X. His comments come one day after the Iranian ministry said two French embassy employees, who were involved in a diplomatic dispute in Tehran in July, would not be allowed to return to Iran. Last month, the French ministry said the French embassy staff had been detained and physically intimidated by Iranian security services in Tehran.
