Bob Blackman, who was sanctioned by Iran last year, is one of the MPs who held several sessions in Parliament to discuss the human rights situation in Iran. By presenting fabricated statistics from the MEK about the 2022 unrest, he facilitated the issuance of several statements against Iran. Consequently, nearly all British lawmakers (including current government members) have been convinced by these biased sessions that Iran is a human rights violator. They are also uniformly calling for the designation of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) as a so-called terrorist organization under the influence of these narratives.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/defapress.ir\/fa\/news\/677615\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mohammad Javad Hashemi-Nejad<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, head of the Habilian Association, which is linked to Iran&#8217;s Ministry of Intelligence, expressed alarm over the growing support for the Iranian Resistance. &#8220;The European Union once listed the MEK as a terrorist group.
