"This is the first report on Iran in Parliament since the Gahler Report in 2001. Since all negotiations on agreements between the EU and Iran have been on hold for years, the only way for Parliament to express a more in-depth position on this country is via an own-initiative report, which was initiated through a Green proposal. The EFD was given the task. 4 political groups (Greens, S&D, ALDE and GUE) formulated joint amendments to the draft which were, to a large degree adopted, albeit by a slight majority. Important issues are: EU contacts with Iran (paragraph 32) where, as regards the background of the controversy over whether the EP’s Iran delegation should be allowed to travel to Iran, the text now calls – contrary to the wishes of the rapporteur – for contacts with a broad range of actors, without making a direct reference to the delegation; sanctions (paragraph 42), where the text calls for targeted sanctions on the main human rights offenders – so far, there are only sanctions on persons linked to the nuclear dossier; and the opening of an EU embassy in Tehran – in parallel with almost all Member States that have a representation in the country."@en1
