EU Trio Targets Tougher Iran Sanctions
[Financial Times-UK] Guy Dinmore, Najmeh Bozorgmehr, and Alex Barker - France, Germany and the UK are proposing a tough list of additional sanctions to be imposed against Iran in order to give the Obama administration more muscle in its expected engagement of the Islamic republic. A confidential document lists 34 Iranian entities and 10 individuals allegedly linked to Iran's covert nuclear or biological weapons programs. The individuals on the new EU-wide sanctions proposal include the commander and deputy of the paramilitary Basij force.
