The Portuguese Parliament approved Friday a resolution designating the Iranian Revolutionary Guards as a terrorist organization and instructed the government to present the issue to the European Union, as Portugal lacks its own terrorism list.
The proposal was introduced by the right-wing Liberal Initiative party, but it received widespread support, with the exception of the communists who opposed it and the far-left Bloc of the Left party, which abstained.
Among the supporters of the resolution were also left-wing parties that have expressed opposition to Israel.
Hezbollah has received $200 million from Iran to help Lebanese displaced by this year’s war with Israel, two people with direct knowledge of the transfer said, the first significant aid from the group to supporters who bore the brunt of the conflict.
Seven months into this war, the Islamic Republic is in the tightest corner of its forty-seven years. That is not cheerleading; it is arithmetic.
US Vice President JD Vance said in an exclusive interview with Reuters that Iran must make a “meaningful” reduction in its nuclear enrichment capacity to satisfy US demands and end the countries’ seven-month war, even as Washington was unsure how Tehran makes decisions in negotiations.
