Video: New German Ambassador in Tehran on His Start in Iran; From Berlin Alley to Tea with Rock Candy

The new German Ambassador to Tehran, Axel Dietmann, began his mission not with formal diplomatic statements but by strolling through Berlin Alley.

"Berlin Alley is a piece of Berlin in Tehran." He says this in Farsi.

Then he took the camera with him inside the embassy; where he takes the Sharq newspaper and then a cup of tea with candy is waiting for him. And it reminds that tea in Iran is not just a drink - it is a sign of hospitality.
