Denmark has reopened its embassy in Tehran more than three months after closing it due to the conflict in the Middle East, the foreign ministry has announced, AFP reports.

“In light of the improvement in the security situation in Iran, the embassy in Tehran is reopening its doors,” the Danish diplomatic service has said in a statement.

“The Danish ambassador to Iran has been working on the embassy premises since June 19,” the statement adds.

Denmark ordered the temporary closure of its embassy in Iran on March 10 because of the security situation in the country.
