Kallas Condemns Violence Against Protesters in Iran

The High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Policy, Kaja Kallas, strongly condemned the violence used by the Iranian regime against peaceful protesters, calling it unacceptable. Kallas emphasized that the response of security forces is disproportionate and “heavy-handed,” while the Iranian people are fighting for their future. She also denounced the internet shutdown as evidence of the regime's fear of its own people. This statement follows the ongoing protests in Iran and their suppression by the authorities.
