E-mailHELSINKI, Sept 16 (Reuters) - Sweden's foreign ministry said on Wednesday it had summoned Iran's ambassador and asked an official at the Iranian embassy in Stockholm to leave the country, citing activity incompatible with the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations.
The ministry did not specify the nature of the activity in its statement.
The Vienna convention defines the rules and privileges of diplomatic missions.
