Foreign Minister Catherine Colonna called on Tuesday for the immediate release by Iran of French “hostages” in the country.
During a brief exchange with her Iranian counterpart Hossein Amir-Abdollahian on the sidelines of an Iraq support summit taking place on the shores of the Dead Sea in Jordan, Colonna said she insisted on the respect of “civil and political rights” in Iran and the “non-interference” of Tehran in its neighborhood.
