In yet another hostile move, the European Union following in the footsteps of the US, Canada, and the UK, announced new sanctions against Iranian authorities and entities in a show of support for rioters, accusing Iran of violating human rights.
In December 2020, the bloc adopted a global human rights sanctions regime to address serious human rights violations and abuses worldwide.
However, to do so, the EU would crucially need to comply with human rights itself. Thats while many people are suffering and their rights are threatened inside EU borders.
