In a press release the Finish Ministry of Foreign Affairs said on Friday current internal political situation in Iran and Iranian regime's "unwillingness to cooperate in the nuclear program dispute" will include in the agenda of 22 February meetings of EU's Foreign Affairs Council. Foreign Minister Alexander Stubb will represent Finland at the meeting.
"Finland’s view is that UN Security Council sanctions should proceed rapidly, also because of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) Review Conference to be held in May. Finland is deeply concerned about the continued weakening of the human rights situation in Iran and considers it important that the EU react coherently to human rights violations," the statement said.
