(Iran International) Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson on Sunday called on the European Union to designate Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization.
The Swedish prime minister’s remarks came shortly after reports that Tehran had enlisted criminals to carry out armed attacks on Israeli embassies in Stockholm and Copenhagen.
“We want Sweden to seriously address with the other EU countries the incredibly problematic connection between the IRGC, their destructive role in the region, but also their escalating actions around various European countries, of which Sweden is one of them,” said Kristersson.
“The only reasonable consequence is that we get a common terror classification, so that you can act more broadly than the sanctions that already exist,” he added, according to a report by Expressen.
