Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian says that Germany's confrontational attitudes and meddling in Tehran’s domestic affairs will ruin bilateral relations and have long-term repercussions.

Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian tweeted that “provocative, interventionist and undiplomatic stances don't signal sophistication and wisdom”, and that “undermining old ties has long-term consequences”.

Addressing his German counterpart Annalena Baerbock, Amir-Abdollahian tersely stated that “Germany can choose engagement to address shared challenges-or confrontation”.

He has also warned that Iran’s response will be proportionate and firm.

FM @ABaerbock,

- Provocative, interventionist & undiplomatic stances don't signal sophistication & wisdom

- Undermining old ties has long-term consequences

Germany can choose engagement to address shared challenges-or confrontation.

Our response will be proportionate & firm.

The German embassy played a role in the recent riots in Iran, Tehran's Fars News revealed last month, according to informed sources.

"The German embassy played a significant and influential role in exercising diplomatic pressure on Iran during the riots in the country," sources told Fars.

"The German embassy in Tehran played a pivotal role in igniting the riots in the country, and embassy officials held meetings with officials of a number of other European embassies to expand the conflict and tension in Iran," the sources added.

A spokesperson from Germany's Foreign Office said earlier this month that discussions are being held in the EU for the elaboration of a new  package of sanctions against Iran over the riots taking place in the country.
