German parliament vice president urges tough steps against Iran

Jan 16, 2026, 09:13 GMT+0

Omid Nouripour, a vice president of the German parliament, called on Berlin to take what he described as immediate and tangible action against Iran’s leadership, citing the brutal crackdown on protests.

“Germany must act,” Nouripour wrote on X. “The brutal actions of the mullah regime require an immediate, noticeable response and must not go unpunished.”

He described Iran’s Revolutionary Guards as what he called the regime’s main tool of repression and urged the German government to ban the group as a terrorist organization.

Nouripour also called for a ban on its activities in Germany, the freezing of private assets of Iranian officials and Guards-linked figures, travel bans, and the severing of diplomatic ties with Tehran.
