Araghchi says Iran could label European armies as 'terrorist groups'

Jan 31, 2026, 07:41 GMT+0

In response to designating the Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps as a terrorist organization, Iran could move through parliament to place European armies on its terrorist list, Abbas Araghchi, Iran’s foreign minister, told CNN Turk.

Europe’s actions, he said, would not reduce regional tensions, adding that countries working for the region’s welfare and stability are regional states, not European ones, and that Europe is only fueling the fire.

Araghchi said Europeans have lost something significant by acting against the Guards and that the European Union’s role in the region is steadily diminishing, adding that he regrets they are not even considering their own interests.
