Members of the European Parliament also called for expanded EU sanctions against Iranian officials and entities involved in repression, including the judiciary, prison authorities, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (<a href=\"https:\/\/iranfreedom.org\/en\/articles\/2023\/04\/irans-regime-irgc-a-state-sponsored-terrorist-organization\/44858\/\" rel=\"\">IRGC<\/a>), and institutions linked to the Supreme Leader. The proposed measures include asset freezes and travel bans.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1476\" data-end=\"1836\">The resolution further urges the closure of Iranian diplomatic missions involved in transnational repression and calls for stronger enforcement of sanctions. European lawmakers also emphasized the importance of pursuing universal jurisdiction so Iranian officials accused of abuses can face prosecution in European courts.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1838\" data-end=\"2232\">In addition, the European Parliament condemned internet shutdowns imposed by Iranian authorities and urged the European Union and partner countries to support secure internet access for the Iranian people.
