JAKARTA - The Speaker of the Iranian Parliament Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf instructed the National Security and Foreign Policy Commission in the Iranian Parliament to follow up on the expulsion of European military attaches from Iran.

Quoted by Antara, Sunday, February 1, this was conveyed in the open session of the Iranian Parliament on Sunday in response to the designation of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a terrorist organization by the European Union (EU) earlier this week.

During the hearing, a member of parliament and a cleric from Tehran, Alireza Salimi, called for the military attache stationed at the embassies of European countries in Tehran to be expelled.

He said that the European military attachés were "terrorists" because their respective national armed forces were also designated as terrorist entities.

Therefore, according to the Strategic Action Law passed by the Iranian Parliament, he said, the military attaches of European countries must also be expelled immediately from Iran.

"They are all now terrorists, and allowing them to remain in the country is a violation of the law," said Salimi, while calling on the Iranian Foreign Ministry to follow up on this.

Responding to Salimi's statement, Ghalibaf also instructed the Security and Foreign Policy Commission in the Iranian Parliament to take follow-up steps and coordinate with the Iranian Foreign Ministry.
