Europe is fueling conflict in the Middle East, Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said, commenting on the EU's decision to designate the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a “terrorist organization.”
“After Europe 'derailed' at the behest of the US, it is now committing another grave strategic error by designating our armed forces a 'terrorist organization.' Not to mention the blatant hypocrisy of its selective outrage—the lack of any response to Israel's genocide in Gaza while rushing to 'defend human rights' in Iran. Europe's PR stunt is primarily aimed at concealing its serious decline. Moreover, since the continent would inevitably suffer greatly from a large-scale war in our region, including skyrocketing energy prices, the EU's current position seriously harms its own interests. Europeans deserve better than what their governments can offer,” the minister wrote.
