Jordan on Monday summoned its ambassador in Iran for consultations over what Amman said was the Islamic republic’s “meddling in Arab affairs,” a Government spokesman said.
Mohamed Momani, who is also the kingdom’s Information Minister, said Jordan’s envoy would return to Amman for “discussions”.
Iran in January finalised a deal with world powers over its disputed nuclear programme, which saw economic sanctions lifted.
Since the accord, Momani said Iran committed “a series of actions and declarations that constitute unacceptable interference in the internal affairs of Arab countries and especially Gulf states”.
Relations between Iran and Arab nations have deteriorated since a row broke out over the execution of influential cleric and activist Nimr al-Nimr by Saudi Arabia in January.
