Thousands Demand EU Blacklisting Of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards

RFL/RE – Some 12,000 of members of the Iranian diaspora met from all over Europe on January 16 in the EU Parliament host city of Strasbourg to urge the bloc to list Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) as a terror group. Pressure is growing among opposition exiles and activists for the EU and Britain follow the United States and blacklist the IRGC over the crackdown on the four months of protests since 22-year-old Mahsa Amini died while in police custody in mid-September. She was detained by Tehran’s notorious morality police for allegedly wearing a head scarf improperly.

People take part in a rally against the Iranian regime in front of the European Parliament in Strasbourg, France, on January 16.
