On the seventh day of nationwide protests, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei dismissed demonstrators as “incited agents of the enemy.
” Speaking harshly, he stated there would be no dialogue with “rioters” and that they must be “put in their place,” claiming foreign enemies aim to destabilize the country.
In response to the crackdown, Germany’s Foreign Ministry expressed deep concern over human rights violations, stating it is closely monitoring reports of violence.
Berlin urged Tehran to abide by international obligations and refrain from using force against citizens by exercising their rights.
Germany reaffirmed its support for the UN fact-finding mission and committed to pursuing EU sanctions against those responsible for the suppression.
This stance highlights the growing diplomatic isolation and pressure facing the Islamic Republic.
