The foreign ministers of France, Germany, and Italy decried the Iranian regime's crackdown on protestors as "unbearable and inhumane," "brutal," and "absolutely unacceptable."
The foreign ministries of France, Germany, and Italy summoned their nation’s Iranian ambassadors on Tuesday, as worldwide concern spreads over the Iranian regime’s treatment of domestic protests.
Jean-Noel Barrot, France’s foreign minister, described the regime’s attempts to violently crack down on protests as "unbearable and inhumane" while speaking to the French parliament.
Barrot announced that he had communicated the condemnation to his Iranian counterpart and stated that the sentiment “will be reiterated to the Iranian ambassador in Paris," whom Barrot stated that he summoned on Thursday.
'no impunity for those who turn weapons against peaceful protesters'
"There can be no impunity for those who turned their weapons against peaceful protesters,” Barrot announced.
Germany’s Federal Foreign Office additionally announced that it summoned its Iranian ambassador for similar reasons.
In a statement released on X/Twitter, Germany described the regime’s actions as “brutal” and “shocking,” urging Iran to “end the violence against its own citizens and to respect their rights.”
Italy’s foreign minister called the crackdown "absolutely unacceptable" and summoned Italy’s Iranian ambassador for discussion.
"These days, men and women across Iran are fighting in the streets and squares, paying a very high price," Foreign Affairs Minister Antonio Tajani told the lower house of the Italian parliament.
