Iran Slaps Retaliatory Sanctions on British Officials, Entities over Terrorism, Rights Abuse
News - Middle East: Iran's foreign ministry has slapped sanctions against a number of British individuals and entities for their support of terrorism, inciting violence, and violating human rights.
In a statement on Wednesday evening, Iran's Foreign Ministry announced the embargoes as a "tit for tat" move against the sanctions that have been imposed by some European countries on Iran.
The sanctions are imposed on the British entities "due to their intentional actions in supporting terrorism and terrorist groups, promoting and inciting terrorism, violence, and hatred, and violating human rights," reads part of the statement.
The measures by the listed entities have led to "riots, violence, and terrorist acts" against the Iranian nation, the ministry added.
Reminding the British government of its international commitments to confront terrorism, hatred and, rights abuse, the Iranian Foreign Ministry noted that failing to confront the actions of the named entities or facilitating their measures amount to a gross violation of the UK’s commitments in the international arena.
