In a candid discussion with Stuttgarter Zeitung<\/a>, Dr. Alejo Vidal-Quadras, former Vice President of the European Parliament, issued a compelling call for Germany to reassess its diplomatic stance toward the clerical regime in Iran. Following a recent trip to Germany where he engaged with members of the Bundestag, the former EP Vice President emphasized the pressing need for a tougher approach towards the Tehran regime.<\/p>\n Dr. Vidal-Quadras’s visit to Germany<\/a> comes in the wake of a chilling incident that saw him targeted in an assassination attempt last November. Dutch authorities recently apprehended a suspect believed to have been involved in orchestrating the attack, which Dr. Vidal-Quadras narrowly survived. Tracing the origins of this heinous act back to Tehran, Vidal-Quadras underscored his long-standing criticism of the Iranian regime and his support for the Iranian Resistance movement.<\/p>\n During the interview which was published on May 2, Dr. Vidal-Quadras minced no words in addressing what he sees as a critical flaw in Western diplomacy: a failure to recognize the regime’s exploitation of perceived weaknesses. He highlighted Germany’s pivotal role in a decades-long policy of appeasement towards Tehran, urging a decisive shift in approach given the regime’s egregious human rights violations, nuclear ambitions, and aggressive foreign policies.<\/p>\n Berlin Conference Urges Support for #Iranian<\/a> Resistance Amidst Rising Tensions in #MiddleEast<\/a>https:\/\/t.co\/vYFnui71bX<\/a><\/p>\n — NCRI-FAC (@iran_policy) April 27, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
