Tehran, Iran, Apr. 05 – The new British ambassador to Iran, Geoffrey Adams, presented his credentials to Iranian Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mottaki on Wednesday.

Adams has replaced Sir Richard Dalton who will transfer to another Diplomatic Service appointment, the British Foreign Office had previously said on its website.
