Official title: Voorstel van resolutie betreffende de systematische repressie en de misdrijven tegen de menselijkheid begaan door de Islamitische Republiek Iran naar aanleiding van het rapport "Architects of Atrocities" van Amnesty International.

Status: Parliament is still discussing this proposal, for example in a committee or while waiting for advice. (parliament: ‘Pending in the Chamber’)

In plain language

  • This proposal asks the federal government to firmly condemn violence in Iran and advocate for stricter European sanctions against Iranian state bodies. It also urges Belgian judicial authorities to examine whether involved Iranian officials can face criminal prosecution.
  • The Belgian government, prosecutors, and diplomats are called to act, while targeted Iranian officials could face asset freezes and travel bans.
  • Nothing changes directly in your daily life, but the proposal aims to better protect the Iranian diaspora and activists in Belgium from foreign harassment and intimidation.
