Members of the Iranian parliament have found themselves under fire for "strange" behaviour involving the European Union’s top diplomat, Federica Mogherini.
She was in Iran for President Hassan Rouhani's inauguration on Saturday when she found herself the centre of attention on the parliament floor.
Many social media users criticised the MPs, labelling their actions "humiliating".
The Fars news agency posted a photo which many social media users felt showed Mogherini unimpressed ‑ and labelled the MPs' behaviour "strange".
One MP, Alireza Salimi, called the behaviour "self‑surrender to the West", and said that a committee on the conduct of members may probe the incident ‑ if other MPs complain that the selfies caused "contempt" for parliament.
