The likelihood that the European Union adds Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps to its list of terror groups jumps significantly, as France decides it will back the measure.
“France supports the inclusion of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on the European Union’s list of terrorist organizations,” an Élysée Palace source tells The Times of Israel.
The 27 EU foreign ministers are scheduled to convene tomorrow morning in Brussels, where they will vote on listing the IRGC as a terrorist organization.
