Iran Rejects EU Sanctions over Human Rights as Politically-Motivated

World

The Iranian Foreign Ministry has dismissed as politically-motivated the European Union’s extension of sanctions against the Islamic Republic over human rights, saying the bloc has turned a blind eye to the realities of civil rights in Iran, according top Press T.V.

The Islamic Republic of Iran condemns the EU’s “double standards and political approaches” and its “abuse of human rights as a tool,” Foreign Ministry Spokesman Bahram Qassemi said on Wednesday.

 He added that the EU’s extension of “unilateral, illegitimate sanctions [against Iran] under the pretext of human rights violations” was a failed, ineffective policy.   

On Tuesday, the European Union extended sanctions against Iran for alleged human rights violations until April 2018.
