NNA - New European Union sanctions against Iran in response to the country’s recent attack on Israel should include the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), Belgium’s Foreign Minister Hadja Lahbib said on Monday.
Speaking to journalists ahead of an EU ministers’ meeting in Luxembourg, Lahbib said that so far there was no consensus on what legal basis the IRGC could be added to bloc-wide list of entities seen as terrorist organizations.
“We will discuss it together,” she said, adding:
“I also think we have to expand sanctions against violent settlers [in the Palestinian West Bank]. We have to be balanced and make sure we won't be accused of having double standards.” ----Reuters
