7 November 2022 at 19:01 Iran summoned the Norwegian ambassador Friday last week, Iran summoned the Norwegian ambassador, Sigvald Hauge. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) informs news that the Iranian side wanted to address recent statements by Norway’s parliament president Masud Gharahkhani (Ap). – Ambassador Hauge gave an account of the Norwegian government’s official view on the Mahsa Amini case, says the press guard at the Foreign Ministry. Norway’s ambassador was also called in on the carpet in September, after what Iran believed was interference in internal affairs. At the time, the background was that Gharahkhani, who is himself from Iran, reacted strongly to the news that 22-year-old Mahsa Amini had died in police custody in Iran. The death has led to large demonstrations in Iran. In the informal meeting of the UN Security Council last week, Norway gave full support to the protesters’ demand that the Iranian regime respect human rights. Iran also wanted to take up a Norwegian statement from the meeting of the Security Council during the meeting with the Norwegian ambassador, says the Foreign Ministry.
