Iran summons Swiss ambassador over U.S. interference in internal affairs

Iran’s foreign ministry summoned the Swiss ambassador in Tehran over U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s support for protesters demonstrating about fuel price hikes.

The Iranian ministry told the Swiss envoy, who represents U.S. interests in the Islamic Republic because Iran and the United States do not have formal diplomatic ties, that the official U.S. statements were an interference in Iran’s internal affairs,  IRNA news agency reported.
