“Starting this week, a small team from the Swiss embassy has returned to Tehran,”<\/em> announced the Swiss Federal Department for Foreign Affairs in a statement.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n

Four embassy employees will prepare for the gradual resumption of diplomatic mission activities. Officials specify that the decision to progressively reopen the embassy was made after a risk assessment and consultations with Iran and the United States.<\/p>\n\n

Switzerland, a country known for its neutrality, has represented American interests in Iran throughout the period since Washington broke diplomatic relations with Tehran following the hostage crisis of 1980, a year after the Islamic Revolution, according to hotnews.ro<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n

The foreign interests section of the Swiss embassy also offers consular services to American citizens living or traveling in Iran.<\/p>\n\n
