    Germany Advises Citizens to Exit Iran Amid Sanctions Retaliation Fears

    Germany's Advisory on Travel to Iran

    (Reuters) -Germany has told its nationals to leave Iran and refrain from travelling there to avoid getting caught in retaliatory acts by Tehran over Germany's role in triggering U.N. sanctions on Iran over its nuclear programme.

    Background on U.N. Sanctions

    Britain, France and Germany on Thursday launched a 30-day process to reimpose U.N. sanctions on Iran over its disputed nuclear programme, a step likely to stoke tensions two months after Israel and the United States bombed Iran.

    Potential Risks for German Nationals

    "As Iranian government representatives have repeatedly threatened with consequences in this case, it cannot be ruled out that German interests and nationals will be affected by countermeasures in Iran," the foreign ministry said in a statement posted on its website on Thursday.

    Embassy Assistance Limitations

    "Currently, the German Embassy in Tehran can only provide limited consular assistance on site," it warned.
