Senior European politicians and Iran experts from a non-governmental organization(ISJ<\/a>) have written to the President of the European Council, Charles Michel, to express their disappointment that the European External Action Service (EEAS) has remained silent over<\/a> the recent terrorism conviction of Iranian diplomat Assadollah Assadi<\/a> in Belgium.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Assadi <\/a>smuggled the explosives into Europe in diplomatic luggage, before driving them to Luxembourg to be handed off to two Belgian-Iranian accomplices, who were also convicted in this trial and given heavy sentences. Luckily, the plan was thwarted. Assadi falsely claimed diplomatic immunity even though he was arrested outside his host state of Austria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The International Committee of \u2018In Search of Justice\u2019 (ISJ<\/a>), which wants to promote \u200b\u200b freedom, democracy, stability, human rights, and peace in Iran, said <\/a>that Assadi was running a terrorist network across Europe and that, if the EU fails to take strong and immediate action, then the regime may feel embolden to commit more terrorist actions across the continent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
