Iran Press/ Iran news: On May 8, 2018, the United States officially withdrew from the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) agreement and, while restoring past sanctions, imposed new ones against Iran.
After the withdrawal of the United States from the JCPOA and the imposition of sanctions against Iran, the Europeans promised to stay committed to the JCPOA and fully support this multilateral agreement. Still, they did not implement any of them.
US imposes cruelest sanctions against Iranian people
Kazem Gharibabadi, Secretary of Iran's High Council for Human Rights, pointed out that Iran has 25,000 victims of terrorism and added that this is even though the American regime has imposed the cruelest sanctions against the Iranian people.
Gharibabadi also referred to the report of Ms. Alena Douhan, the UN Special Rapporteur on the Islamic Republic of Iran, and said that Douhan has a vital sentence that she also expressed in her report and press conference, which is that "Sanctions have affected all dimensions of human rights of Iranian people."
At a press conference held at Iran's National Library on May 18, 2022, Alena Douhan underlined that the complex set of unilateral sanctions against Iran, coupled with secondary sanctions against third parties, over compliance and zero-risking policies by businesses and financial institutions, exacerbate existing humanitarian and economic challenges and negatively affect the lives of the people, in particular the most vulnerable.

Gharibabadi emphasized that Sweden has an international responsibility in this regard and added that many measures had been taken at different levels in the legal, judicial, political, and diplomatic fields.
On November 9, 2019, Iranian citizen "Hamid Nouri" was arrested by Sweden's security forces upon his arrival to resolve his adopted daughter's family disputes. He has been in prison for about 32 months.
The Swedish prosecutor's office has accused Nouri of being involved in the alleged incidents related to 34 years ago in Iran, and the plaintiffs, in this case, are primarily members of the terrorist outfit the Mojahedin-e-Khalq Organization (MKO).
The Swedish court sentenced Nouri to life imprisonment on July 14, based on the accusations of the terrorist outfit the MKO.
