According to the three MEPs, who are also members of the delegation, EU's priority is to condemn this act using concrete actions and sanctions. We need a formal condemnation, they said.
The MEPs added that the condemnation would be the prelude to other initiatives and strong signals that the European Parliament has a duty to send to the government in Tehran.
