Italy’s PM, political parties slam Iran’s repression of protesters

ROME, 14 December 2022, (TON): Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has condemned Iran for suppressing dissent and pledged that her administration would continue to defend the fundamental rights and freedoms of that country’s people.

In a speech in the Chamber of Deputies, Meloni recalled that on Monday Iran executed a second man — in defiance of an international outcry over the use of capital punishment in connection with protests that have shaken the regime for months.

She said “I say this clearly. The use of force against peaceful demonstrators, against women is unjustifiable and above all unacceptable.”
