Iran's Protest Letter to the President of the European Council; Stop Hannah Neumann

Hannah Neumann, a German representative in the European Parliament, announced in a tweet that she received a letter from Iran. Neumann wrote: "I have received a letter from the Iranian regime. Apparently, Raisi did not like my tweets, so they sent an oral note to the President of the European Council asking them to stop me." The German representative in the European Parliament added: "If you need more evidence that this regime does not tell the truth, read this and rest assured that I will continue." The Iranian Foreign Ministry, in a note to Sweden, the presidency of the European Union, expressed its strong objection to this institution, calling Hannah Neumann's statements "biased" and "provocative." The note from the Iranian Foreign Ministry stated: "Hannah Neumann wrote against Dr. Ebrahim Raisi, the President of the thirteenth government, on her personal Twitter account on May 21, 2023. The anti-Iranian statements and activities of this individual, especially her provocations in recent months, lack legal legitimacy, are based on distortion of facts and misinformation, and are far from rationality and political wisdom." Ms. Hannah Neumann has been a strong supporter of the protesters since the beginning of the widespread protests in Iran, both in the European Parliament and in social media.
