Report Summary

The resolution addresses the ongoing persecution of the Bahá'í community in Iran, highlighting decades of state-sponsored repression. It denounces the arbitrary confiscation of property and the misuse of legal provisions to target religious minorities. Key demands include the release of imprisoned Bahá'í, such as six women sentenced to lengthy prison terms, and the restitution of seized assets. The EU seeks to intensify diplomatic pressure on Iran to uphold religious freedom and human rights. Support for UN monitoring and civil society initiatives is emphasized to hold Iranian authorities accountable.
