(National-UAE) German universities have established links with an Iranian institute that has ties to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Hezbollah, campaigners have said.
New research by United Against Nuclear Iran has accused five establishments of having ties with the University of Religions and Denominations, whose current president has held positions in the IRGC.
The group has written to the University of Paderborn, the University of Potsdam, Free University Berlin, Goethe Frankfurt University and the University of Munster asking … them to explain their links to the Iranian university.
These have included joint inter-faith dialogue programmes, reciprocal delegation trips, and student exchanges, which the campaigners say has been funded by German taxpayers.
