A state-run paper in Iran seen as the mouthpiece of the mullahs’ Supreme Leader, Kayhan daily, covered the story, acknowledging that some of the names on the list include those of Mesbah Yazdi, Ahmad Khatami, Mohammad Yazdi, Hossein Shariatmadari, Sadeq Larijani, Hassan Firouzabadi, and Mohammad Ali Jafari.
“The list will be discussed at the European Union and the people affected will have sanctions slapped against them and their assets frozen in the EU,” Kayhan added.
