This development, reported by the prominent German <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sueddeutsche.de\/politik\/iran-revolutionsgarde-terror-sanktionen-baerbock-lux.3mXCTE79zPjHVXuG1rvw1L?reduced=true\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">newspaper S\u00fcddeutsche Zeitung<\/a> on Thursday, July 4, underscores Germany&#8217;s increasing concern over the Iranian regime&#8217;s activities in the Middle East and beyond.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Christian Democratic Union (CDU), Germany&#8217;s largest opposition party, has also called for a comprehensive review of the country&#8217;s policy towards the Iranian regime. The CDU has highlighted Iran&#8217;s longstanding history of sponsoring terrorism, destabilizing the Middle East, and financing proxy groups. The party&#8217;s primary proposals include exerting pressure on the EU to recognize the IRGC as a terrorist entity, forming an international coalition with Middle Eastern Arab countries to counter Tehran&#8217;s nuclear ambitions, and closing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncr-iran.org\/en\/ncri-statements\/terrorism-fundamentalism\/iranian-regimes-centers-for-espionage-exporting-fundamentalism-and-terrorism-should-have-been-closed-much-sooner\/\">Islamic Center in Hamburg<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Echoing these sentiments, Deutsche Welle reported on July 4 that Germany&#8217;s federal government has opened a formal file within the EU aimed at imposing terrorist sanctions on the IRGC. The German Foreign Ministry, along with several other EU member states, is involved in this initiative. This push comes amidst heightened tensions and scrutiny over the regime&#8217;s regional influence and nuclear program.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/Iran?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#Iran<\/a> News: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/German?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#German<\/a> State Issues Ban on Iranian Diplomats Following April 14 Attack<a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/FjVoC24Nj4\">https:\/\/t.co\/FjVoC24Nj4<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; NCRI-FAC (@iran_policy) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/iran_policy\/status\/1781289299318559090?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 19, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The European Union had previously stated that a court ruling is required to officially designate the IRGC as a terrorist organization.
