EJC President Pierre Besnainou met in Brussels with Javier Solana, EU High Representative for Common Foreign and Security Policy, calling for the EU to take a stronger stance against the Iranian regime, on Monday, September 25th.
Solana updated the EJC on the advancement of EU-Iran talks, while the EJC expressed European Jews’ growing fear of the Iranian anti-Semitic regime.
Besnainou insisted to Solana that Iran has established a network that is committed to spreading instability in the region, through Syria and notably through Hezbollah.
“The European Union must do its utmost to ensure a resolution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, as this will weaken Iran’s attempt to uproot peace efforts by using the Palestinian cause as an excuse for leading a campaign against Israel and the West” he said.
