EU's von der Leyen: Sanctions Against Iran Should Not Be Lifted Prematurely
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen maintains that sanctions imposed on Iran should not be lifted until significant changes are observed in the country.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stated in Berlin on Monday that it is too early to consider lifting the sanctions imposed on Iran.
The decision to maintain these sanctions, according to her, stems from concerns over the suppression of the Iranian population by its government.
Von der Leyen emphasized the need for a fundamental shift within Iran before any sanctions could be lifted.
This stance was expressed during a meeting with the conservative CDU and its Bavarian sister party CSU.
