Urgent need for action: Germany's challenge in Iran

In a shocking act, the Iranian regime Jamshid Sharmahd had. A strong sign that underlines the brutality and uncomfortability of the Tehran rulers! While the world is looking at the events, the German government is under pressure to rethink its relationships with Iran. A clear call to drastically restrict trade with the Islamic Republic!

The sad truth: Sharmahd's fate could also reflect the fate of other innocent Germans in the hands of the regime. In the notorious Evin prison, where the air vibrates with fear and despair, the German-Iranian activist Nahid Taghavi sits behind bars. Your health is alarming and raises questions about the human rights situation in Iran!

The urgent demands of civil society

The voices from civil society are getting louder: the EU now urgently needs to check further sanctions! Many demand to finally become active and to support the citizens of Iran. The protests from 2022 have shown that the regime no longer has the backing that it once enjoyed. The backing of the population is sinking and the regime reacts panicked!

The execution of Sharmahd should clearly set an example. A deterrent signal to all those who dare to rise against the authorities - the terror of the regime is perfectly showing its teeth! But the question remains: Could an early reaction from the federal government have been able to avert this tragedy? At least it would have been the right step!

In summary, it should be noted: the situation in Iran is dramatic. Together we have to make sure that the cries of the oppressed are heard. The international community can and must do a lot more to support the people in Iran!
