Germany on February 22 said it was expelling two employees of the Iranian Embassy in Berlin following the sentencing of Iranian-German national Jamshid Sharmahd to death by Iran's judiciary for allegedly planning a deadly 2008 bombing. German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said in a statement that she had summoned the Iranian charge d'affaires to inform him "that we do not accept the massive violation" of the rights of a German citizen. "We call on Iran to revoke Jamshid Sharmahd's death sentence and allow him a fair and due process of appeal," Baerbock said.
