Spain reopens embassy in Tehran

The Spanish embassy in Tehran, which was temporarily closed for security reasons following the US and Israel's war with Iran, has reopened.

Iranian news agencies reported that the embassy resumed its work on April 13, to support "mediation" after a two-week ceasefire, which came into effect on April 8.

The Spanish ambassador, who arrived in Iran the day before, said he would try to "support peace efforts by all parties."

Spain has positioned itself as one of the leading Western critics of the US and Israel since the start of the war on February 28.

Speaking after the Israeli attacks in Lebanon on April 8, Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares said they violated the ceasefire and international law.

The US, Iran and Israel disagreed on whether the ceasefire would apply in Lebanon, where Israel says it is targeting Iranian-backed Hezbollah fighters.

Washington and Tehran agreed on April 7 to a two-week ceasefire to give both sides time to negotiate a peace deal.

However, talks held over the weekend in Islamabad did not prove successful.

As a result, United States President Donald Trump said the US military will block all maritime traffic entering and leaving Iranian ports and coastal areas in the Persian Gulf, starting April 13 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time./REL
