Shocked!!

As RT reported previously, Aboutalebi, 56, previously served as Iran’s ambassador to three countries and the European Union, but is perhaps most infamously known in the US for his alleged role within a group, Muslim Students Following the Imam’s Line, that occupied the US Embassy in Tehran in 1979 and held dozens of Americans hostage.
