The European Union is listing Iran’s paramilitary Revolutionary Guard as a terrorist organization over Tehran’s bloody crackdown on nationwide protests. The bloc’s top diplomat made the announcement Thursday. It is a largely symbolic move that adds to international pressures on the Islamic Republic. The EU’s foreign policy chief, Kaja Kallas, said foreign ministers in the 27-nation bloc unanimously agreed on the designation. She said it will put the regime “on the same footing” with al-Qaida, Hamas and the Islamic State group. Meanwhile, Iran faces the threat of military action from U.S. President Donald Trump in response to the killing of peaceful demonstrators and over possible mass executions.
