    Jean-Noël Barrot, the French Foreign Minister, condemned the "unacceptable repression of the peaceful uprising of the Iranian people" in a post on his official X account, stating: "The extraordinary courage of the Iranian people in the face of blind violence cannot be in vain. Together with our European partners, we will approve sanctions against Iranian officials tomorrow in Brussels. They will be banned from entering European territory, and their assets will be frozen."
    Mr. Barrot announced that France will support placing the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on the list of terrorist organizations of the European Union.
    He concluded by urging the Iranian government to "immediately release prisoners, end executions, lift the digital blockade, and allow the UN Human Rights Council's fact-finding mission to investigate the crimes committed in Iran."

    With the change in position of France and Spain regarding the designation of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps as a terrorist organization, the European Union may soon recognize this military entity of the Islamic Republic as a terrorist organization.

    The French presidency announced on Wednesday, January 28, that the country supports the inclusion of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on the EU's list of terrorist organizations.

    According to news agencies, sources in the Spanish Foreign Ministry also confirmed that Spain will vote in favor of this decision in the European Union.

    This comes as Italy, which initially showed reluctance towards this action, changed its stance to support the designation of the IRGC as a terrorist organization following the release of new data on the horrific dimensions of the violent suppression of street protests in Iran.

    On Tuesday, January 27, Antonio Tajani, the Italian Foreign Minister, also announced that Italy would propose placing the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on the EU's list of terrorist organizations at the meeting of the EU Foreign Ministers' Council in Brussels on Thursday; a position that reflects a shift in Rome's approach to one of the most controversial foreign policy issues in Europe regarding the Iranian government.

    Marco Rubio, the U.S. Secretary of State, stated during a U.S. Senate hearing that Iran's future would be "uncertain and very complex" if the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic were to step down, and there are no simple answers for the next phase.

    Rubio explained that the power structure in the Islamic Republic is based on two main pillars: the Supreme Leader and the Revolutionary Guard, an institution that answers directly to the leader. He added that alongside this structure, there are so-called semi-elected officials who, although visible in the public and political arena, ultimately must align all their decisions and actions with the Supreme Leader's views.

    The U.S. Secretary of State emphasized that if this regime collapses, no one can definitively say who will take power or how the transition will unfold. According to him, the only hope is that if such a scenario occurs, there will be a possibility to move towards some form of transition from within the existing structures.

    Rubio further warned that any fundamental change in Iran would be far more complex than similar cases, as the Islamic Republic has been in power for decades. He stated that such a situation would require "very careful thinking and cautious planning" if one day this scenario becomes a reality.

    Rubio said regimes like Iran have learned that shooting protesters in the head through snipers can be effective. However, he emphasized that the regime is in its weakest position and the main issue is that the government is unable to respond to the demands of the Iranian people.
    @VahidHeadline
    He attributed the main reason for Iran's economic collapse to the regime's preference for spending the country's resources on military weapons and supporting terrorist groups instead of investing in society.
    Rubio noted that while the flames of protests may have currently subsided, due to the regime's unwillingness to change its behavior and lift sanctions, these protests will flare up again in the future. He stated: "The demands of the Iranian people are legitimate and enduring, and as long as this regime does not want to change or step down from power, there will be no way to resolve the crises."
    @VahidOOnLine
    Marco Rubio, the U.S. Secretary of State, today warned during a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing that the presence of 30,000 to 40,000 American forces in the region is within range of thousands of ballistic missiles and suicide drones from the Islamic Republic. Rubio emphasized that this threat is not a theoretical discussion but a "dangerous reality" that requires a decisive response.
    Rubio clarified that Donald Trump reserves the right to use the option of "preemptive defense" to protect the lives of American soldiers and the security of allies like Israel. He said: "If we have evidence of an imminent attack from Iran, we will take preemptive action to prevent harm to our personnel."
    @VahidOOnLine
    In response to a question about the U.S. State Department's estimate of the number of casualties from protests in Iran, Marco Rubio said: "Certainly in the thousands."

    The U.S. Secretary of State also discussed Washington's actions in Venezuela, including the arrest of Nicolás Maduro, the ousted president, stating: "For the first time in 20 years, serious discussions are underway about weakening and even eliminating Iran's presence, China's influence, and Russia's presence in Venezuela."
    He told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee that Maduro must be removed from power because Venezuela has become a base for operations by U.S. adversaries, including China, Russia, and Iran.

    The Iranian Foreign Ministry states that Tehran's current priority is readiness for defense, not negotiations with the U.S.
    Kazem Gharibabadi, Iran's Deputy Foreign Minister, emphasized that "sitting at the negotiating table with the U.S. does not mean a reduced likelihood of war," stating that "our priority right now is not negotiating with the U.S., but a 200% readiness to defend the country."
    Mr. Gharibabadi added that despite "exchanging messages" with the U.S., there are currently no negotiations taking place with the United States.
    @VahidHeadline
    Axios reported, citing American officials, that there are currently no serious negotiations between the U.S. and the Islamic Republic. Countries such as Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Qatar have been in contact with both sides and have conveyed messages.

    🔸The President of the United States announced on Wednesday, January 28, that a massive fleet is heading towards Iran, adding that this fleet is ready to carry out its mission "with speed and violence" if necessary.

    🔸Donald Trump wrote in a post on his social media platform, Truth Social, that "this fleet is moving with speed, great power, motivation, and a clear purpose. It is larger than the fleet that was sent to Venezuela, and the large aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln is at its head."

    🔸He emphasized: "Just like the situation in Venezuela, this force is ready, willing, and fully capable of carrying out its mission with speed and violence if necessary."

    🔸The President of the United States expressed hope that Iran would "come to the negotiating table" soon and negotiate a fair and just agreement, without nuclear weapons, that would benefit all parties involved.

    🔸Mr. Trump reminded that time is "running out" and "every moment is truly critical!"

    🔸He stated: "As I previously told Iran: make a deal! They didn't, and the result was the 'midnight hammer operation' which caused widespread destruction in Iran."

    Senator Cruz wrote on X on Tuesday evening, February 7: "We (the U.S.) must arm the protesters right now. So that the people of Iran can overthrow the Ayatollah - the tyrant who constantly chants 'Death to America' - this will lead to greater and greater security for America."
