The Guardian: Iran behind two assassinations in Netherlands – minister

Foreign minister says there is ‘strong’ evidence Iran directed killings of two Dutch nationals.

Iran has been accused by the Dutch government of directing two political assassinations in the Netherlands, triggering EU sanctions against Tehran’s military intelligence service.

The two murders are alleged to have taken place in broad daylight in 2015 in Almere, a city east of Amsterdam, and in 2017 on a street close to the Dutch foreign ministry in The Hague.

In a written statement to the Dutch parliament, Stef Blok, the country’s foreign minister, said intelligence services had found “strong indications that Iran was involved in the assassinations of two Dutch nationals of Iranian origin”.

And still EU wants to bypass the sanctions and deal with Iran. And say that Trump is the bad guy for cancelling the holy Obama-signature-Iran-deal.

If there where any balls in the politicians today they would all have denounced Iran long ago instead of trying to make deals and earn money from them.

Would be fun to see how much corruption there is involved in all of this. I wonder how much of the billions of dollars sent to Iran really made it all the way.

Pathetic.
