Sweden urges Iran to release 'EU diplomat' it has held over 500 days- Daily Mail

Sweden has urged Iran to release one of its nationals, who works as an EU diplomat, from prison, claiming that he's been arbitrarily held for over 500 days.

Sweden's foreign ministry says that it is working 'very intensively' on the case of Johan Floderus, a 33-year-old native Swede who works for the European External Action Service, the EU's diplomatic arm.

His case has been kept under wraps since April 2022, when he was arrested in Iran's capital, Tehran, while on holiday with some Swedish friends, but was first reported by the New York Times on Monday. Read the full article here.
