Expelled Iranian diplomats arrive home

Sunday, 4 December 2011


Iran's diplomats expelled from London over the storming of the British embassy in Tehran arrived home Saturday, as US Vice President Joe Biden was to discuss the West's mounting concerns in Turkey. The Iranian diplomats were kept out of the sight of waiting media at the capital's Mehrabad airport after landing aboard an IranAir flight, media reported. Some 150 hardline students chanting "Death to Britain" and holding flower garlands who were there to welcome them did not see them either, an AFP photographer said.
