Borrell added, “Iran must understand that the European Union strongly condemns them and stands with Iranian women who support peaceful demonstrations.”
The European Union previously decided to impose sanctions on 40 Iranian individuals and 7 institutions over the police’s handling of demonstrations across the country following the death of the young woman, “Mahsa Amini”.
