Iran diplomat among six arrested over suspected plot against opposition meeting

By Robert-Jan Bartunek and John Irish BRUSSELS/PARIS (Reuters) - An Iranian diplomat has been arrested along with two people suspected of plotting a bomb attack on a meeting of an exiled Iranian opposition group in France attended by Donald Trump's lawyer Rudy Giuliani, Belgian authorities said on Monday. Three other arrests were made in France but two of them were later released. Several former European and Arab ministers also attended the meeting of the Paris-based National Council of Resistance of Iran (NCRI) - an umbrella bloc of opposition groups in exile that seek an end to Shi'ite Muslim clerical rule in Iran.
