EU parliament calls for release of Iranian Nobel laureate
European Parliament called for the immediate release of Nobel Peace Prize laureate Narges Mohammadi and other women held in detention in Iran, condemning violence against the country’s population.
“MEPs condemn the violence by the Iranian regime against its own population, particularly targeting civil society actors, protesters, women, minorities and communities. They denounce the oppression of women and call for the immediate release of women in detention, especially Nobel Peace Prize laureate Narges Mohammadi,” read a statement following a resolution adopted on Thursday.
