Iran says no to U.S. embassy in Tehran

Britain's Philip Hammond shakes hands with Iranian president Hassan Rouhani in Tehran.

Britain’s Philip Hammond shakes hands with Iranian president Hassan Rouhani in Tehran.

Not that America has yet petitioned – but Iran has already announced it will not allow the United States to reopen its embassy in Tehran any time soon.

Why?

Because America has an “illogical attitude,” said Mohammad Javad Zarif, underscoring in Reuters how the recently forged nuclear deal among the world powers, pressed by President Obama, does not mean a return to U.S.–Tehran diplomatic ties.

“It seems that there needs to be a change in that kind of attitude and behavior on the part of the United States,” he said, the Hill reported.

The remarks come on the heels of a ceremony in Tehran between Iran’s government and Britain’s foreign secretary, Philip Hammond, announcing the restoration of the United Kingdom’s embassy. Iran then sent diplomats to London for a similar public relations show of affection, the Hill said.

But for the United States – nothing.

“The situation is different with the U.S,.” Zarif reportedly said.
