The Spanish Government categorically condemns the recent executions of opposition figures in Iran and urges the Iranian authorities to put an end to death sentences and executions, whilst reiterating its opposition to this inhumane punishment, which violates the most fundamental human rights to life and dignity.
Spain reiterates its condemnation of the Iranian regime’s bloody repression of its population, and in particular of peaceful demonstrators, many of whom have been killed or executed following summary trials, or arbitrarily detained.
Spain also reiterates its firm condemnation of the Iranian regime’s indiscriminate attacks against the civilian population, homes and strategic civilian infrastructure in the Gulf States and the region, systematically violating international law and international humanitarian law and causing unforeseeable environmental and economic consequences.
Spain extends its condolences to the families of the deceased and its solidarity to all the victims of these attacks.
Spain demands that the Iranian regime put an end to the attacks against the Gulf countries and the region, and that it unblock navigation in the Strait of Hormuz. Spain also calls on all parties to exercise restraint and de-escalate the conflict, the destabilising impact of which is already global in scope.
