Italien drängt auf hartes Vorgehen der EU gegen die iranische Revolutionsgarde wegen „abscheulicher Taten“

The EU Parliament has long urged the EU Council to designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran as a terrorist organization. In light of the recent bloody crackdown against Iranian protesters, in which the regime reportedly killed thousands of people, the debate has resurfaced.

A few countries object to the designation. Italy has now shifted its stance. France seems to be the last remaining country to object, which could block the efforts to brand the IRGC as a terrorist group.
