'Moderate Iran' - 258 Iranian MPs Condemn EP Resolution.
'Moderate Iran' - 258 Iranian MPs Condemn EP Resolution.(Fars).
Iranian lawmakers in a statement on Tuesday deplored the recent Human Rights resolution of the European Parliament against Iran as blatant meddling in the country's internal affairs.
The Friday resolution of the European Parliament which called the recent presidential elections in Iran undemocratic is shocking and a kind of meddling in Iran's internal affairs, the statement signed by a number of 258 Iranian parliamentarians said.
The Iranian lawmakers said that the West's double-standard approach towards political systems and their negligence towards despotic regimes and those lacking democracy is not hidden to anyone and is a well established fact.
The resolution adopted by the EP in its Friday meeting in Brussels has called for meetings between EU delegations and Iranian dissidents and opposition leaders and criticized the presidential elections in Iran.
The European's move has angered officials in Tehran as it has been adopted after the western states voiced their consent and pleasure in the betterment of ties with Iran following a breakthrough deal over Tehran's nuclear program.
On Sunday, the Iranian Foreign Ministry, in reaction to the European Parliament's Friday resolution against the human rights situation in Iran, summoned Greek Ambassador to Tehran Nikolas Garilidis and conveyed Tehran's official protest to him whose country holds European Union (EU) presidency.
Speaking at a meeting with Garilidis, the director-general of West Europe affairs at the Iranian Foreign Ministry dismissed as “unacceptable and unrealistic” the European Parliament’s resolution which accuses Iran of human rights violations.
“Such injudicious measures and positions run counter to the common interests of the European Union and the Islamic Republic of Iran,” the Iranian official said.
On Monday, Iranian lawmakers worked out an eight-paragraph plan which includes several retaliatory measures against the recent Human Rights resolution of the European Parliament against Iran.
In their plan of action, the lawmakers have called on the government of Iranian President Hassan Rouhani to take tit-for-tat measures against each and every European country which has signed the resolution.
The bill requires the government to reconsider its political and economic relations with those European countries that have voted for the EP resolution as long as they have not taken back their votes.
No European official and delegation can meet any Iranian real and legal entity without Iran's prior consent and legal permission.
The government will also be bound to reconsider its combat against the transit of narcotics via Iran given the heavy costs and sacrifice of human lives that such a combat incurs on Iran and taking into account the Europeans' hostile stance displayed in their recent resolution against Tehran.
The bill further reminds Iran's experience about the former US Embassy (spy den) in Tehran, and necessitates the government to turn down demands by the European Parliament or western human rights organizations for opening an office in Iran.
The bill also underlines that the government will be duty-bound to reconsider its cooperation with the UN Human Rights Commission for as long as the Western countries ignore human and Islamic culture and rights and adopt a double-standard policy in this regard.
It also requires the government to treat the officials and nationals of the European countries in the very same manner that they treat Iranian nationals upon their arrival and departure from their countries.
The resolution adopted by the European Parliament in its Friday meeting in Brussels has called for meetings between EU delegations and Iranian dissidents and opposition leaders and criticized the presidential elections in Iran.
The Europeans' move has angered officials in Tehran as it has been adopted after the western states voiced their consent and pleasure in the betterment of ties with Iran following a breakthrough deal over Tehran's nuclear program.Hmmm....As i said before Any European leader thinking of using Iranian gas, shipped trough turkey better have his head examined.
