Niederlande legen Beziehungen zum Iran auf Eis

Nach der Hinrichtung einer iranisch-niederländischen Frau im Iran hat die niederländische Regierung die Kontakte zu Teheran auf Eis gelegt. Die Vollstreckung des Todesurteils an der Regimegegnerin sei eine "Schandtat durch ein barbarisches Regime", erklärte der niederländische Außenminister Uri Rosenthal.

Das Einfrieren der Beziehungen zum Iran mit sofortiger Wirkung hat unter anderem zur Folge, dass die Bewegungsfreiheit des Botschafters und der anderen Diplomaten bis auf weiteres erheblich eingeschränkt ist. Das Außenministerium in Den Haag riet Iranern mit niederländischem Pass dringend von Reisen in ihr Herkunftsland ab.
